Half Truth shines in its evocation of the environment and atmosphere of its settings and eras. In its characters is an inherent, multifaceted exploration of empire and conquest in Morocco and the multidimensionality of the country’s people and cultures today. Through this all is the heartbeat of womanhood and resilience.
