Safar: Salvation Army

23 Sep 2014

The rapturous debut feature from Moroccan writer Abdellah Taia offers a charged, semi-autobiographical tale about a young graduate who must navigate the sexual, racial and political intrigue surrounding his arrival in Geneva. Inspired by his own autobiographical novel, of the same title, Taia’s coming-of-age story folds and unfolds with love, pain, desire and violence.
