Fatale Orientale (international title: Blooming Dalia) is French-Algerian actress and director’s Holy Fatma second short film. From the distributor’s blurb:

Dalia, 25, is a French ex-reality TV starlet who is at her lowest point. Depressed and overweight, she tries to reconnect with her estranged mother, who still refuses to talk to her because of her seedy tabloid fodder past. Deeply hurt, Dalia accepts to be part of a new TV show booked by Coco, her agent, on the condition that she loses weight. But as Coco strives to make her the it-girl she once was, Dalia’s repressed Algerian origins resurface in a surreal way.

Initially released in 2020, the movie got a new poster for its screening on national television in March 2022. Designed by Alizée Freudenthal from Studio Freudenthal, on this poster the movie title is set in Ikanseeyouall, while information and credits are using two different – yet unidentified – sans serif fonts [edit: looks like two widths of Archivo].

The film is now available for free on the director’s YouTube channel.

  1. I think the unidentifed sans serif typeface is Archivo.

  2. I think you nailed it. Thanks!

  3. My pleasure!

    It seems Archivo comes in 6 widths now: ExtraCondensed, Condensed, SemiCondensed, Regular, SemiExpanded, and Expanded.

  4. Thank you, Akira. I’ve updated the typeface bio.

  5. Thanks a lot Akira, still holding your title of FIU’s MVP regarding unidentified fonts!
