Boussa from the Netherlands
January. 01,2017
For this project, Bak went to northern Morocco to meet women working as shrimp peelers for a Dutch company. The shrimp are fished in the Netherlands, transported in refrigerated trucks to be prepared in Tetouan and then sent back to their starting point for marketing. "Boussa from the Netherlands" shows the women, a source of cheap labour for the multinationals, paid on a piecework basis, carrying out their activity in deplorable conditions, without any social protection.
Reviews
Masterful Movie
Good start, but then it gets ruined
It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
