About
In a North African village, young bride Leila leads a sex strike to make the men install a water pipe.
In a remote village in North Africa, the women fetch water every day from a spring at the top of a mountain. The route is steep and the sun burns, while the men do nothing. The young bride Leila (Leïla Bekhti) finds it unacceptable that the women carry all the tasks. She proposes that the women withhold sex from the men until they install a water pipe to the village. Hafsia Herzi plays Loubna, also known as Esmeralda. The story is an adaptation of the ancient Greek comedy Lysistrata.
