Habib (2023)
Directed by Benoît Mariage
Overview
The story of a young Belgian actor of Moroccan origin who agrees to play the role of Saint-François-d’Assise to put an end to the roles of nice Arabs that are stuck on his forehead in often mediocre films. Getting into the historical figure will represent a real challenge for him; when his father, settled in Morocco, suddenly returns to Brussels with a new wife, and the beginnings of Alzheimer’s, he finds himself having to juggle between the expectations of his colleagues and his family.
