“Northern Rain” is a documentary that stems from the experience of the Moroccan association Assaida Al Horra and was made in collaboration with them. One of the association's many current projects is to recover the stories of some Moroccan women who participated in the struggle for the country's independence in the 1950s. The documentary focuses on these particular stories that make up Morocco's recent history. “Northern Rain” aims to show today's Moroccan women who seek their image in the mirror of time and who gratefully recover for the collective memory the history of struggle, risk, and courage of other women who until now remained hidden.

Tchinda is one of most beloved women in Cape Verde, especially after she came out as a transgender person in the local newspaper in 1998. Since then, her name has become the term used by locals to name queer Cape Verdeans.
