‘Much loved’ by Nabil Ayouch

This is the third film that I have worked on by Nabil Ayouch after ‘Ali Zaoua’ and ‘Horses of God’. Ayouch has a special approach in dealing with social issues in each of his movies. He mainly thinks out of the box when it comes to dealing with the story as if you are watching real events through the frames of a TV box.

In today’s film, the story arouses too much criticism and contempt within the general audience who consider the work to be merely a pornographic film.  Apart from that, Nabil Ayouch has another point of view and he succeeds to convey it to the audience and the chaos that his movie creates proves that. 

Sometimes, it is hard to tell people about reality; yet, it is necessary to unveil reality when it comes to the suffering of people. Ayouch, as he used to do in all his movies, is faithful to the issues which he deals with; despite the fact that prostitution is an enormous phenomenon. 

The film is about three prostitutes: Noha (Loubna Abidar), Randa (Asma Lazrak), and Soukaina (Hakima Karaouane ). The film records as much as possible the prostitution life of the three women. Once you watch such film, you will reconsider many ideas about prostitutes who are looked down in our society.

This time I choose not to summarize the film's story because everything is clear. Besides, the message that i absoreb from the film is that every human being is good by nature and never choose to be bad , but the environment and coincidence draw lines of their future that may follow unconsciously. Thus, one should not judge. People should always respect the harshness others undergo.
