Si Moh, the Unlucky Man 1971

Directed by Moumen Smihi

Shot in Paris after Moumen Smihi completed film school, Si Moh, pas de chance is an investigation into the lives of migrant workers in France. Connected back to the Maghreb by postcards and to his fellow migrants by shared experiences of alienation, the character Si Moh negotiates the industrialized suburbs of Paris as the subject of Smihi’s intimate camera.
