One Evening in July
(Un soir de juillet)

Old Saida is called when there are weddings to enhance the beauty of brides with henna, massage and make-up on the wedding day. But Miriam is not a girl like the others and she refuses Saida’s treatment. Even if hers is not an arranged wedding, Miriam is afraid and does not feel ready to take this step. The feelings of the young woman bring back to Saida the memories of her youth and the drama of marriage to a man who was twice her age. Between the two women arises a strong feeling of solidarity.
