Award-winning director Nabil Ayoud's Everybody Loves Touda centers around the irrepressible Touda (Niarin Erradi) who only dreams of one thing: being a Sheikha, a respected traditional Moroccan performer empowered by the lyrics of the fierce female poets who came before her - with their songs of resistance and emancipation.
Performing every evening in provincial bars under the lustful gaze of men, Touda plans to sether sights on leaving her small village for the bright lights of Casablanca where she hopes to be recognized as a true artist and also secure a better futurefor her and her son.
