Genre: ComedyRuntime: 1h 20mRelease: 9th September, 2002
Directors: Jilani SaadiLanguages: Arabic, FrenchCountry: Belgium, France, TunisiaPlot: In the arid Tunisian village of Bizerte, Khorma -- with his blonde-red hair and quirky habits -- is the town's kindly joke. His guardian is Bou Khaleb, the official announcer of births, deaths, and marriages. When the Bou mistakenly announces the death of a woman rather than her daughter's marriage, the film immerses us in the often-hilarious power struggles amongst the clerics of the "religion business".
