## Description

Product Description               Raja is a nineteen-year-old orphan literally and figuratively scarred by life. Fred is an emotionally bankrupt westerner living amid his plush gardens and palm trees. Set against the backdrop of contemporary Marrakech, Raja is a cross-cultural drama about a wealthy middle-aged Frenchman's complex relationship with this poor local girl. Fred's attempts to seduce Raja, and their mutual attempts at manipulation, are fractured by their gross disparity of income, age and cultural sophistication. Winner - French Cineaste of the Year - Cannes Film Festival. Winner - Best Actress Winner and Golden Star Nomination- Marrakech Int'l Film Festival. Winner - Marcello Mastroianni Award - Venice Int'l Film Festival. Official Selection - New York, Toronto and Seattle Film Festivals. In French and Arabic with English subtitles.

    Don't waste your time or brain cells on this poor excuse for cinema
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on May 30, 2017*

This movie deserves zero stars. It was poorly shot as far as cinematography goes, the actors were terrible and unnatural in all their words, movements, and gazes, how the frenchman speaks is unrealistic and how the local men behave around him is not realistic. A story where an older man wants a young girl is not new or original(Lolita themes), but can be told artistically , this was complete trash.  You will regret every minute wasted watching this poor excuse for a film. It barely had a plot or moving story at all. I only watched the entire thing because I expected it to get good at some point...I fast forwarded to the end couldn't take it.

    Bittersweet and beautiful
  

*by B***S on Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2017*

To the one-star reviewers who demand that you don't "waste your brain cells," I posit that you probably don't possess any brain cells if you think that this film is not engaging, unique or heartbreaking. Its characters' weaknesses are  infuriating, but also deeply human and fascinatingly observed. The relationship between Raja and "Frigo" moves from playful and horny to tragic and fatalistic, without ever announcing where it will end up or what the next move by Raja or Frigo will be. The sometimes playful. sometimes sleazy game of seduction leads to a complex and moving interplay between a man and a woman who are cultural opposites without any expected cliches, other than pain and passion that ring true. The supporting characters make you you laugh and rail against them - because as stifling as their world views are, they're also funny and likeable. After watching so many cardboard-character, Mickey Mouse-plasticky plot-movies with forgettable characters, Raja was a true gift.

    Slow but enjoyable outdoorsey set flick
  

*by A***A on Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2018*

I like this is set in an outdoors country; Marrakesh seems something out of a book. Yeah, this movie is kinda slow but enjoyable. Unfortunately I read the actors bios first and found that Gregory is openly gay. I have nothing against but he definitely was not a great choice for this movie. On the good side I think the acting was excellent from Gregory. The main role actress was ok. All others, kinda less than ok. The old women, are alright and give the flick a nice tone.
