Goha 1959 (5.2)

As far as can be determined, Goha was Tunisia's first entry in the Cannes Film Festival. Omar Sharif stars as a naïve young man who is taken for granted by friends and family. Little do they know that he has more intelligence, tenacity and imagination than all of them put together. The story takes an unexpectedly dramatic turn when the man falls in love with the young wife of his village's elderly "wise man". Based on an ancient Tunisian folk tale, Goha boasts impressive production values and sure-handed direction (by Jacques Baratier).

Abbes, the best rider of the village, has fallen in love with a girl who is already engaged to Ahmed. She returns his love and marries him but the unhappy fiance will not hear of it and murders Abbes. He is arrested but soon released due to lack of evidence. Om Abbes, Abbes' mother, is furious and swears to take revenge on the killer. Three years later, a pilgrim arrives in another village and wins the confidence of all. In fact, this 'hadj' is none other than Om Abbes in disguise, in search of Ahmed.
