Douiba(2003)

Douiba is a Moroccan film rooted in authentic heritage, following a poor family after their father Salem—a caravan guard known as "Zatat"—disappears during a journey. His three daughters, believing him dead, must fend for themselves in a harsh world. The youngest, Aouisha, becomes their protector through cunning and quick wit, using her intelligence to outwit the local sovereign Moulay Abid whenever he threatens their survival. As the sisters navigate poverty and danger, Aouisha's resourcefulness keeps them alive, though the shadow of their missing father looms over their struggle for stability and dignity in their community.
