MAKING OF d Histoire d’un Lutteur M’chaouchi [MA]

Directed by Mohamed Ahed Bensouda

Shot in Fez (Morocco) on 16/07/2008
Making of directed by Youssef Britel

HICHAM BAHLOUL Actor

Ahmed Ahed BENSOUDA told me about the movie and M’chaouchi fight nearly 4 years ago. He has been toying with this idea for a long time since he comes from the city of Fès and he knows who practiced this sport. Last year, we met at his place in Paris and we read the screen play. I loved it. He offered me to play the main character «Slimane» and I was pleased with it.

The main female character is very important in the movie because this woman is the reason why we fight: flesh will struggle for heart. The settings are majestic: during a scene, I was behind a camera and I saw hundreds of extras, horses, tents, torches. An atmosphere fit for an international movie
