1999 · 90 min

Moulay Driss, a cultured and quick-witted man, silently dedicates an unlimited love to his cousin, the beautiful Yacout. He is forbidden to confess his love for fear of displeasing him because of his hunchback and his one-eyed eye. As Moulay Driss can not even hope to seduce Yacout, he decides to help Moulay Ali, his best friend, to conquer her. Moulay Driss begins writing fiery letters to Yacout on behalf of Ali. At times, hidden behind a tree, he recites them himself to a subjugated Yacut. Yacout, who really falls in love with Moulay Driss's words, believes he loves Moulay Ali.

🎬 MovieFinder's Take

Yacout is an acquired taste at 0.0/10. We recommend checking the trailer and synopsis before diving in.

Not every film is made for everyone. Read the synopsis, watch the trailer — you'll know right away if it's for you.

A classic from 1999. They don't make them like this anymore — which is exactly why you should watch it. Best for: genre fans and those open to something unconventional.
