In Ifri, a remote hamlet in Morocco's High Atlas, shepherd families live in near-medieval conditions. The villagers have long waited for a road, but are told electricity will come instead. Shot over three years, the film observes how this change affects the community and its social pressures, a philosophical fable about progress. In Arabic with English and French subtitles. A Belgium, France and Morocco co-production, 2012.
