Dounia is young and eager to escape the suburbs so as to embrace the luxurious life she’s been dreaming of. She can rely on her friend Maïmouna yet she finds herself hanging out with men who cannot always be trusted. Both amusing and dark, “Divines”, which was awarded the Caméra d’or in Cannes in 2016, made actresses Oulaya Amamra and Déborah Lukumuena as well as director Houda Benyamina famous.
