"Perfumes of Algiers" by Rachid Benhadj (Algeria, 2012, 108 min) - Alwan Film Festival 2013
Perfumes of Algiers is a film centered on the personalities of a family on the verge of falling apart. Karima is an independent photographer, while her brother Murad is part of an anti-government group. Karima's father is controlling while her mother is resentful. Escaping the reach of her father, Karima flees to Paris; yet memories hound her. When she receives a phone call from her mother, asking her to return to Algiers, Karima finds herself again in the middle of her family's turmoil. Benhadj portrays a beautifully complex vision of Algeria through the lens of Academy Award-winning Italian cinematographer Vittorio Storraro (Apocalypse Now, The Last Emperor, The Sheltering Sky).
