Award-winning actor turned director Sean Gullette presents this stunning genre-film set in Morocco. Malika is the leader of an all-female punk rock band called Traitors. She has a strong vision of the world, her hometown of Tangier and her place in it. When she needs money to save her family from eviction and to realise her ambition for the band, Malika agrees to a fast cash proposition: a smuggling run over the mountains with Amal, a burnt-out young drug mule.
Followed by a post-screening Q&A with the director Sean Gullette.
