HoFF | Halima (2026) (Nederlandse première) + panel

An 86-year-old Moroccan woman leads a quiet life gathering mussels along the coast. But an unexpected phone call brings back a past marked by poverty, displacement and her involvement in the illegal cannabis trade. At 86, Halima lives a quiet life on Morocco’s coast, earning what little she can by gathering and selling mussels. But an unexpected phone call brings back memories of a past she thought she had left behind. Years earlier, after her husband's death, Halima struggled to hold on to their home in the Rif Mountains. Faced with mounting financial hardship and the threat of losing everything, she became involved in the illegal cannabis trade. Now, as her past catches up with her and her way of life comes under threat once again, Halima refuses to give up the independence she has fought so hard to preserve.
