{"product_id":"9322225246249","title":"A Tale of Love and Desire (DVD)","description":"\u003cp\u003eHeralded as one of the major discoveries of the 2021 Cannes Film Festival, writer\/director Leyla Bouzid’s enchanting and seductive romance depicts a university student torn between his desire for a classmate and his deeply-held ideals of cultural and social propriety.  Ahmed (the remarkable Sami Outalbali, Sex Education) is a talented 18-year-old Algerian from the outer Parisian suburbs, who has received a grant to study literature at the prestigious Sorbonne. Though the same city, it’s a disorientingly-foreign world for the conservative Ahmed, and he is rattled by the discovery of a rich canon of ancient, erotic Arabic texts in his new surroundings, works in which he recognises a reflection of his own secret yearnings.  Ahmed has been struck by the beautiful Farah (magnetic discovery Zbeida Belhajamor), a vibrant Tunisian student who exudes curiosity and has fully embraced the freedoms and opportunity of studying in a new city. Ahmed is both overwhelmed with desire and afraid to surrender to his impulses…  Intelligent and engaging with its themes of identity, courtship and romantic expectations, Bouzid’s thoughtful and surprising fable of young love is a romance with a difference, celebrating passion and curiosity, culture and desire.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 7 to 14 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46406851231902,"sku":"MAD-PAL236","price":29.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9322225246249.jpg?v=1768542112","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9322225246249","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
