Numbers of movies are made around the world on prostitutes and this one is not exceptional. Nude scenes are easily used in such movies in the name of creativity to get eye balls. If makers of such movies are truly sensitive to the subject they need to make it without vulgar dialogues and scenes.
The movie is intelligent because it is balanced and accurately portrays scenes of prostitution without ever trying to take a binary stance. All actresses perform very well, in touch with the realism of the movie. It is a great insight into a part of the Moroccan life, and a mirror of our world, even when some would rather deny it exists.
I thing I missed the point of the movie.. Ok so there are prostitutes in Morocco.. And as always they have it hard.. But they enjoy it.. or not? So the one joins.. she aborted and the other say sometimes its better to have no kids than be a bad mum... and everyone keeps giggling.. I don't know.. I could not really get a feeling for the characters... It was extremely chaotic and playing to much on the emotions..
No suprise this film was never showed in its country, I even find it difficult to understand how it could be made, it shows well how things work there, how every public servant is on sale and prone to abuse the weak, and the extreme hypochresy of societe about sex, prostitution and overall the clients
there is a scene at the police station than may well represent the whole picture of the movie, I will not explain to avoid spoilers
great acting most of the time and very well direction also, a must see if you are into exploring good movies outside the mainstream.

This movie shows in a very realistic form what is behind prostitution: the life and feelings of prostitute themselves. Some scenes are very crude, but there is no vulgarity or pornography in this movie; the reality which is presented is vulgar, the film is not. The intelligent aspect of this movie is that it doesn't impose any moral judgment: it only shows facts, people, the ones who pay for prostitution, the ones who take advantage of it (sometimes condemning it at the same time), the ones who accept it... Even if the reality of the four women and the man making their living by selling their body is often sad, the movie is not tearful; it is full of life, energy and some lines are even very funny. The three main actresses play with great talents these subtle and difficult roles.
