SELHAM(The boxing robe)
Description :
SELHAM captures the beautiful story between a Moroccan female fighter and her loving mother. They may live under hard conditions but they both fight every day so that Khaoula can become a worldwide recognized kickboxing champion. It is amazing to see how devoted they both are and especially how supportive Aicha is to her daughter.
« What happened to my son, why isn’t he coming back » is singing Aicha about her very missed son. She sings for him to come back home while she is preparing food for Khaoula.
The talented Aicha is not only providing for her daughter but also making sure she is shining when entering the ring. This is why Aicha is secretly preparing a surprise for Khaoula before every Moroccan championship. Aicha makes sure Khaoula only sees her gift on fight day.
SELHAM is the incredible reward Khaoula gets for each victory.
