    Tunis, Summer 2003. With a razorblade, a man on a motorcycle slashes the buttocks of Tunisian women dressed in western clothes. Is it an urban myth or is it a real story? Ten years later, filmmaker Kaouther Ben Hania wants to solve the mystery.

    Kaouther Ben Hania judiciously chooses the characters she interviews. Her acerbic social satire explores the machismo and misogyny of a post-Revolution Tunisia.
