Morocco filmmaker Hicham Lasri’s Sidi Valentine became the first Moroccan Netflix production after premiering last week on the streaming platform.

Sidi Valentine features on ‘Love, Life, and Everything in Between’, an anthology series comprised of eight short movies set around Valentine’s Day, directed by Arab filmmakers.

Sidi Valentine follows protagonist Lotfi after a chance encounter in front of a chocolate shop goes south, as he discovers his car being towed with his niece asleep in the backseat.

Conceived by Egyptian screenwriter Azza Shalaby, Love, Life, and Everything in Between revolves around uncanny love stories from around the Arab world.
