Couscous is a food staple for the entirety of the Maghreb population (North Africa). By focusing on the political, social, economic, and ecological conditions of its production and preparation, this documentary shows that the issue of food security is at the heart of human dignity challenges, especially in the rural world. Without food sovereignty, a people or a nation’s dignity is nothing but a malapropism. The recent invasion of Ukraine and the staggering rise in food prices on the world market are an instance of that. The continent which suffers the most from this situation remains Africa.
