\u00bbDeath does not belong to the women.\u00ab \u2013 Abla
\n\u00bbVery little is really ours.\u00ab \u2013 Samia<\/p>\n

Abla, a widow, is mother to eight-year-old Warda and a baker who sells her wares from the window of her apartment in Casablanca’s old town. One day Samia shows up on her doorstep \u2013 unmarried, heavily pregnant and in need of accommodation and a job. Warda takes to her straight away, so Abla reluctantly gives her shelter. Later, they arrange for Samia to stay until she gives birth. Over the weeks that follow, Abla and Samia work together to create small miracles out of flour, semolina, water and sugar. Meanwhile, Samia’s zest for life and her talent for baking begin to draw the young, embittered widow out of her disciplined shell. The elephant in the room is the unanswered question of what will happen once Samia’s baby is born.<\/p>\n

Shot in an intimate setting, Adam<\/strong> depicts two single Moroccan women and a girl who come to each other’s aid as they feel their way along the social and religious guardrails dominating their lives, touching unsentimentally upon major issues such as maternal love, grief, and death. By skilfully playing with depth of field, director of photography Virginie Surdej succeeds in showcasing both the intimacy and the distance between the protagonists, interpreted impressively by international star Lubna Azabal and Nisrin Erradi (recognised as Best Actress at the Durban IFF<\/em>).<\/p>\n
