Synopsis

The film tells the story of Izza, a mother from the Souss countryside, and the difficulties she faces in caring for her seriously ill daughter. Every month, her husband Hussein sends a parcel to his family containing medicine for his daughter. When he once forgets to do so, endangering the life of his child, Izza - who has never left her native countryside - decides to make a long journey to Casablanca in search of her husband. She meets Aziza, a prostitute who will help her. The journey will last one day and one night, hence the title of the film.
