And so, they embarked on a labor of love to embrace everyone in their community. Shot in a documentary style with no actors, Amine appears alongside his family and the people he encountered in his travels; people who live and breathe the Mediterranean life, and those visiting from around the world. All the while singing about their love to dance and joie de vivre!
