Mnamet Aroussia Filming Locations

Aroussia Chared is a wealthy, severe but generous woman, who comes from an old middle-class Tunisian family. Aged over 80, she is the widow of a notable of the countryside, Boubaker Chared, of Aithet El Maghraoui in the northwest of Tunisia. She was married for the first time to Belhassen Azzouz, a citizen of the Tunisian upper middle class, with whom she had two twins: Hédi and Béhija; he leaves her when she is 27 years old to marry a richer woman and keeps custody of the children at his home in Tunis. Aroussia lives in a large house, located in a vast area of several hundred hectares that she continues to manage, with her epileptic grandson, Azaiz, son of her late son Moncef, artist photographer, and his paternal cousin Rabi. It turns out that she is the real owner of the estate and that she has developed this heritage, her husband Boubaker having gone bankrupt in a project. This wealth attracts him the reproaches of the maternal family of his grandson who accuses him of not having shared the inheritance with him. Zahi Chelihi, modest assistant photographer at Moncef, remains friends with Aroussia and goes to her house, even after the death of her son. He sends her Lilia, the daughter of his sister Hayet, to her to become his companion; she ends up becoming her housekeeper and discovering that Moncef is her father. Wishing to publish the works of her son, Aroussia organizes events with Zahi, even planning the foundation of a museum in the name of her son. In reality, Zahi is the real author of the works. Out of jealousy, he eventually burned down Aroussia's house, destroying his room and that of Moncef. Mahdi Azzouz, son of Hédi, who became the heritage manager of his grandmother, falls in love with Lilia. At the same time, Zeineb Azzouz, Mahdi's sister, seduces Azzaiz during his stay at Aroussia in order to enrich himself. Azzaiz, fallen in love, asks for his hand and marries her despite the refusal of Hedi and Aroussia. Written by: brahamdali
