).

Written by Nadir Moknèche in collaboration with Naïla Guiguet (La Montagne) and Michael Barnes, the script centres on Saïd, 27 years old, who still lives with his parents. He is in a secret relationship with Vincent. Unable to face his family, he accepts an arranged marriage with 25 years old Hadjira, who comes from the South of France. After a sad love story and some trouble with the law, she also resigned herself to obeying her mother. Trapped by their respective families, Saïd and Hadjira unite despite themselves, to each recover their own freedom…

Produced by Nathalie Mesuret and Bertand Gore for Blue Monday Productions, You Promised Me the Sea is co-produced by Le Bureau. Pre-bought by TV5 Monde and Ciné+, the feature film benefits from the support of the Brittany region, the Images de la diversité fund of the CNC, as well as the Cinéventure and Cofinova Soficas.
