Hinde Boujemaa’S heart-touching story first had its world premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival. After that, it has its regional screening in Egypt’s El Gouna Film Festival. This festival run has proven successful for Hend, who kicked it all of back in August, when she joined the jury panel of the Luigi De Laurentiis Award for a Debut Film at the Venice Film Festival.
