Film Synopsis
Frédéric is a mature Frenchman who lives in a handsome residence in Morocco. He is looked after by his two faithful housekeepers. One day, whilst the young women are busy replanting his lawn, Frédéric notices Raja and he has just one thought: to seduce the young Moroccan woman. But she does not live in the same world as him and wants only to work honestly so that she can get by. Frédéric takes Raja on as his housemaid, so that she can be with him everyday. But the young woman has her pride and she and her employer do not speak the same language. Then the misunderstandings begin...© James Travers
