With Zizou and the Arab Spring, Fe?rid Boughedir (Halfaouine, A Summer in La Goulette) charmingIy pulls off a Iighthearted comedic fable about, of alI things, the 2011 Arab Spring uprising in Tunisia. Zizou (Zied Ayadi) is a naive and sincere optimist whose crush
on a beautifuI girI leads him to become the unwitting face of a revolution. With two years of university under his belt, but very littIe common sense, Zizou leaves his Saharan viIlage and finds work in the big city of Tunis, instalIing sateIIite dishes aIongside a coIorfuI cast of characters. The job takes him to every part of the city, introducing him to residents ranging from supporters of the regime and underground rebels to a ravishing beauty being held captive by the mafia. When Zizou decides to attempt a rescue of his beIoved, he gets much more than he bargained for, and a case of mistaken identity lands him in the forefront of a national rebellion. This deIightfuI movie will win you over with its bewitching story set against the gorgeous backdrop of a colorful Tunisia as it attempts to become the first true democracy in North Africa. – Traverse City FiIm FestivaI
