Written and directed by Yassine EL Idrissi

Synopsis

In the Atlas Mountains lies Safrana, an isolated village that was repeatedly attacked by the French army in the 1940s for its prized plantation of saffron. To protect themselves and live in peace, the residents decided to stop cultivating the valuable spice. After their independence and without this profitable crop, the village declined into poverty. The local people still believe that the flower is cursed, but one man, Hassan, attempts to grow saffron to prove them wrong.
