Foreign Flick Fridays

No comment on todays movie.  I think I'll actually sit down to watch it this weekend.  Lol.  Have a good weekend, y'all.


Viva Laldjerie

Three women: a modern young woman, her mother and a local prostitute have been living in a hotel in the heart of Algiers amid creeping fundamentalism.  Goucem, the daughter, has chosen a modern, emancipated life, spending steamy weekends in nightclubs.  Fifi, her faithful friend, prostitutes herself under the thumb of a local protector.  Papicha, the mother, eats pizzas in front of the television, torn between fear and nostalgia.
