Overview

Parfum de Printemps (Sweet Smell of Spring) is a Tunisian comedy-drama set against the backdrop of the 2011 Arab Spring. Aziz, nicknamed Zizou and played by Zied Ayadi, is a newly graduated young man from a Saharan village who travels to Tunis in search of employment. He finds his footing as a satellite dish installer — a job that grants him access to homes across every social stratum, from the wealthy elite to the working poor. Along the way, he falls for the captivating Aicha, played by Sara Hanachi, and stumbles headlong into the political upheaval reshaping his country. A warm, fresh, and quietly observant portrait of a country and a young man simultaneously coming of age.
