Our Father

Brothers Armine (Hamza Moctar Aguid) and Tahir (Ahidjo Mahamat Moussa) are devastated when their father deserts them. Together, they search for him all over their small town in Chad -- and believe they find him onscreen in one of the movies at the local cinema! After they get caught stealing the film, the boys' exasperated mother, Achta (Zara Haroun), packs them off to a strict boarding school. While the pair plan their escape, Tahir catches the eye of a mute girl (Mounira Khalil).
