Achoura - Director Q&A

Somewhere in the Moroccan countryside, four children scare the living daylights out of each other, just for fun. In a house that is rumoured to be the dwelling of ghosts, one of them mysteriously disappears. A quarter-century later, the three remaining friends bump into their long-lost playmate. His reappearance coincides with a series of child kidnappings. Could he have something to do with that?

Achoura is the second feature film by French-Moroccan director Talal Selhami. Dissatisfied with the lack of genre movies in the land of his forebears, he vowed to make the first Moroccan creature feature.

We're thrilled to welcome Talal for a Skype Q&A following the screening, hosted by Melbourne Horror Film Society's Dave Lore.
