Drama A group of women in Morocco make a living as prostitutes in a culture that is very unforgiving toward women in that profession.

	Author	Review
United Kingdom	Phil Hoad The Guardian	"[It] tackles sexual hypocrisy in Morocco with a battering ram (...) How closely the film mirrors real prostitutes’ experience is moot (…) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Jay Weissberg Variety	"[It] pushes the envelope yet says nothing new about how prostitutes, and women in general, are treated in the Kingdom"	NEU
United Kingdom	Jonathan Romney Screendaily	"Festivals will snap it up, and provocative subject matter as well as its strong dramatic thrust and performances will ensure modest but solid export potential."	POS
United States	The Hollywood Reporter	"Ayouch has a hypnotic ability to immerse the viewer in scenes, and the film — while not a revelation — is certainly an easy watch."	POS
United States	Leah Pickett Chicago Reader	"Ayouch indulges in long scenes of bacchanalia and some explicit sex, but they're hardly out of line with the story; if anything, they're too light and fun to be completely believable"	NEU
