Synopsis

An unrepentant womanizer, polygamist Hadj Benmoussa lives in the old medina of Fez with his three wives, who maintain fairly good relations between themselves within their household. When he suspects his favorite wife Houda of flirting with a younger man, he divorces her for the third time in a sudden fit of jealousy, but soon comes to regret it. But Islamic law is intractable on the matter: Hadj Benmoussa will be able to marry Houda again only if another man makes her his wife and divorces her in his turn...
