Le Mariage de Moussa is a Algerian film directed by Tayeb Mefti. The film tells the story of a young Algerian emigrant who is forced to return to his country, where he will be forced to marry.
Moussa, a young French-Algerian man, returns to his homeland. Faced with a difficult situation, he chooses to return to France, but is called up for civil service. This situation works in his favor, as he is secretly in love with his cousin Nacira.
The film was produced in post-independence Algeria, during a period marked by migratory flows, emigration, and the challenges of returning home and social reintegration. Tayeb Mefti, the director, had previously made several short films, and *The Marriage of Moussa* represents his most significant feature-length work.
