Fatwa

Directed by Mahmoud Ben Mahmoud
Tunisia
2018,102 min
In Fatwa, the year is 2013, the aftermath of the Jasmine Revolution where freedom of speech is heralded and extreme Islamist beliefs are allowed to flourish. Brahim Nadhour, a Tunisian man living in France, returns to Tunis for the first time in many years, following the death of his son Marwan in a motorcycle accident. As he searches to understand his son’s radical Islamic inclinations, he witnesses the changes in Tunisia, and gradually realizes that perhaps his son’s death was not an accident.
