After learning that his son, Yahya, has died at sea trying to get to Spain, Ahmed Tchiche must find a way to bring his remains back to Morocco so he and his family can have a proper goodbye. A Spanish mortician, an NGO worker and an established Moroccan immigrant living in Spain all struggle to help Ahmed get his son's body home.
Through interweaving threads, "Until He's Back" explores a dangerous journey across the Mediterranean and the difficulty of returning the bodies of those who drown at sea. In this story of grief and hope, a family and a community try to make sense of the tragedy that took Yahya away.

Women who now live in the Pyrenees, in places where the most fervent witch-hunting once took place, now talk about the reality of femicide from between the 15th and 18th centuries. They invite us to delve into their own lives and themselves share their fears: new or even rooted in history.

Three years ago, fleeing from the tight fist of a network of pimps, Gemma and those who followed her, set up a new brothel.
It is divided into two levels: upstairs, “El Castillo”, a single living space for more than ten sex workers. Downstairs, “La Plaza”, where the clients swarm and rooms are distributed.
This film opens the door to the controversial world of sex work through the yearnings and conflicts of a madam with the soul of a poetess.
