Scènes et Types intimately portrays women who rely on sex work to survive. Scènes et Types tells the story of Moroccan women who, upon losing their virginity, had little choice but to become prostitutes. It discusses how their lives, sexual choices, and motherhood have been determined by society and culture. While this feminine and political exploration draws lines between ourselves and the women we portray, it also destroys those lines, leaving the narrative to rest in the awkward reality of compassion and communion alongside abstraction and disconnect—a space that often constitutes foreign relations.”
