Siham and Hafida are two chikha performers who sing traditional Moroccan Aita, a style of music which is a historical symbol of resistance against French colonisation. Several generations apart, they are also bitter rivals. Bennani stages this melodrama with a mischievous touch, in the style of reality TV.
