Pour le Plaisir des Yeux (1997)

Directed by Izza Génini

Documentary · 52m

In Morocco, the art and craft of beautification is essentially in the hands of a woman known in the north of the country as a "ziyanna" (beautician) and everywhere else as a "neggaffa." A central figure in the lives of Moroccan women, the "neggaffa" accompanies all beauty rituals. She is an accomplished artist, a creator of living, ephemeral tableaux. Hajja Khadifa, mistress of the "neggaffates" of Casablanca, and her aunt Fanida share some of their knowledge with us.
