Timimoun

Laid and Nadir, two young Algerian men, are on their way to Timimoun, an Oasis in the middle of the Sahara. Laid receives a letter from his sister Assia in which she asks him to come home and free her from the tyranny of her stepfather. Laid works as a photographer in the coastal city of Bejaia. Here, at the Mediterranean Sea, is where his journey into the hostile desert begins: he and his friend Nadir, a car mechanic, leave the ‘European’ north of the country to travel deeper and deeper into the traditional tribal areas.

There was a trailer...but, it has since disappeared.
