By Randa MAROUFI

LE FRESNOY STUDIO NATIONAL DES ARTS CONTEMPORAINS - as PROMO

Documentary - Completed 2014

    • The film is inspired by a character known as The Great Safae. He was a transvestite, and spent part of his life working as a domestic servant for my family, which was quite unaware of his "true" sexual identity.
