In the Medina of Casablanca, young Thami braves the wrath of his father, the conservative Adel coming from a long line of prestigious Koranic lawyers, to embrace the only occupation he cares for: butchery. As he handles the meats, he discovers another taboo passion, women and the taste of love with Zineb. A journey of initiation, a quest for freedom, Thami and Zineb’s love is a revolution in today’s fast and changing Morocco.
