Douiba is a Moroccan film rooted in authentic folk heritage, telling the story of a poor family headed by Father Salem — known as Zatat — a man who earns his living escorting and protecting merchant caravans from bandits. His deep attachment to his three daughters keeps him close to home, but an unavoidable journey forces him away, and when news of him vanishes, the three sisters fear the worst.
