The movie is about a woman, returning to her home country, Tunisia, after having fled at the age of 10. Now with her French passport, and her tattoos, she is stigmatised by the society. But this doesn't stop her from building her life as a psychoanalyst while forming meaningful and heartfelt relationships with those around her. I only wish we could know more about her family and her own history. But I feel like this was on purpose left behind, to give the feeling that Selma was only one of many. This way, we can focus more on the uniqueness of her return and her desire to help, all at the same time not compromising from her values.
