Bouchra (2026)

Director: Orian Barki

Cast: Meriem Bennani, Orian Barki, Fayçal Azizi, Ariana Faye Allensworth, Hassan Hamdani

Stuck on her debut film, Bouchra—a queer Moroccan jackal navigating life in New York City—finally picks up the phone for tough, long-overdue conversations with her mother back in Casablanca. Those calls start to reshape her project. Juggling the instability of an artist’s life, the tug-of-war with her cultural roots, and a rotating cast of romantic entanglements, Bouchra finds that facing her own emotional chaos becomes the key to unlocking her voice.
