Starve your Dog
Morocco | 2015 | 94 min. | Arabic | Fiction | Hebrew, English Subtitles
On the last day of Ramadan, a hastily assembled crew of technicians waits in a shabby Morocco television studio, expecting to film what their director Rita promises will be the interview of their lifetime: It's Driss Basri, the previous monarch's reign of terror’s dreaded Interior Minister. Besri has decided to disclose the monarchy's dark secrets exclusively to Rita, a once groundbreaking journalist who is desperate to make her comeback. But now the crew has become so fractious it's doubtful they'll manage to get this show in the can.
