Synopsis of Badis
1974, a little fishing village in the shadow of the Badis fort, a Spanish enclave in Moroccan territory. A primary school teacher from Casablanca asks to be sent to this remote village so that he can spy on his wife Touria. He keeps her closed up at home. She becomes friends with Moira, a village girl whose father is a fisherman and whose Spanish mother ran away 15 years earlier. There is the beginning of an affair between a Spanish soldier and Moira. But village gossip and intrigues put a stop to this idyll. Prisoners of this narrow world, the two women attempt to flee.
