The Grace We Know As Grandma

Four years after the death of her grandmother Jedda, the director returns with her father to her house in Amizmiz, while life continues in her grandmother Mima's home in Marrakech. Through family archives and present-day footage, the film weaves a dialogue between two houses, two grandmothers and two generations of women, exploring how love, memory and baraka continue to inhabit both places and people.
