“The Blue Caftan dares to imagine a world where there’s room for both appreciation of the old ways and room to evolve.”—Variety
Halim and Mina run a traditional caftan store in one of Morocco’s oldest medinas, and hire Youssef in order to keep up with customer demand. Mina gradually realizes how much her husband is moved by the young man’s presence. Morocco’s official entry for Best International Film at the 95th Academy Awards, The Blue Caftan tells a surprising, tender story of unconditional love and acceptance.
