The pirate Barbarossa frees Algiers from Spain’s tyranny and takes over power in the kingdom. Rumor has it that he has assassinated King Salim Toumi, despite their alliance. Against all odds, a woman stands up to him: Queen Zaphira, King Salim’s wife. Straddling history and legend, this woman’s life tells us the story of her struggle and the personal and political conflicts she had to endure for the good of Algiers. (FILMAFFINITY)The following is said about the movie by Oti Rodríguez Marchante of the newspaper ABC: “The film is watched, followed and heard with great interest, and the fusion of the melodramatic flavor of the story (...), reaching a tragic boil which feels almost Shakespearean, makes it highly interesting and enjoyable.” Carlos Marañón of Cinemanía magazine adds: “Carefully designed wardrobe and staging (...) Well-crafted vindication of an inspiring woman from 1516 Algiers.”Directed by: Adila Bendimerad, Damien OunouriCast: Adila Bendimerad, Dali Benssalah, Imen Noel, Nadia Tereszkiewicz, Tahar ZaouiDuration 110 minutesNationality: Algeria, FranceThe screening will be followed by a talk with Miguel Ángel Bunes, a researching professor at the Spanish National Research Council’s Institute of History (CSIC) who is an expert on the history of the Mediterranean in the Modern Age (sixteenth to seventeenth centuries), the Ottoman Empire and religious minorities in the Mediterranean world.
