The Blue Caftan (2022)
Listen now
Description
Oh this? Why yes, the Crit Club is wearing a new immaculately tasteful and exquisitely handcrafted new movie, specifically 2022’s The Blue Caftan from writer/director Maryam Touzani. A quiet family drama of a husband and wife managing a tailor shop in Morocco, The Blue Caftan has volumes to say (albeit in hushed tones) about love, family, identity, and devotion. Did your Crit Club faves learn from the lessons imparted, or did we just take the caftan and leave? You’ll have to listen to find out.
Join us next week for a Coire pick where we’ll watch 1996’s Irma Vep.
