Nejma [Oulaya Amamra] celebrates her debut as (the first female) bull rider with a large group of friends and colleagues. In order to keep going until the early hours, she takes a “magic drug”. From that moment on, Nejma undergoes a transformation. At first only in her head, later also physically. What is going on and what causes this transformation? Benestan keeps you guessing until the last act. She does create an ominous atmosphere, but the denouement is banal and quite unbelievable.

A film where testosterone is central. If not from the excited bulls, then from the Camargue cowboys who make the bullfighting their passion. The female protagonist Nejma knows all about it and tries to hold her own in this macho world.

Visually quite a nice film with nice long shots of the bullfights, the sultry atmosphere afterwards during the parties, the beautiful decor and the atmosphere as a whole. However, I missed some verve and power in the story. The film also doesn't have to rely on the dialogues.

An incident literally drives Nejma to the bulls. She becomes one with it and you get a werewolf feeling. A bit mysterious and a bit thriller level, but it doesn't really get off the ground. Not entirely convinced at least. It feels a bit unfinished. Too bad.
