Badi Chouka

Documentarian Nejib Belkadhi trails amateur Tunisian filmmaker Moncef Kahloucha as he makes his latest feature, Tarzan of the Arabs.

Larger-than-life characters populate director Nejib Belkadhi’s spellbinding combination of film noir and magic realism, which follows a downtrodden orphan — now grown but still saddled with a cruel nickname — who has a reversal of fortune and takes on the thugs who control his ghetto.

The suffocating presence of his mother-in- law, who believes to be haunted by an evil spirit annoys Mourad a big deal. But soon, an easy solution to all his problems pops up.
