Biography

Idrissi was born in Rabat in 1977. Her parents are of Berber ancestry.[1] Idrissi dreamed of becoming a ballerina, enrolling in ballet lessons at the age of four. At age 16, she moved to Montreal to study business management, and discovered her passion for cinema after she went with a friend to a theater competition.[2] In 2003, she made her film debut in El Bandia, which was popular among younger audiences.[1] She starred as Habiba in the 2006 film La Symphonie marocaine, directed by Kamal Kamal.[3] Idrissi played Jamila in Souad Hamidou's 2009 film Camille and Jamila. She portrayed Rihanna, a sick girl at a mental asylum, in Pégase in 2010, and received her first prize for her performance.[2] In 2016, Idrissi played Myriam, one of the leading female roles, in Divines, directed by Houda Benyamina. The film won the Caméra d'Or at the Cannes Film Festival.[1] Idrissi has also acted in theatrical productions and has been praised for her versatility as an actress.[4]

In a 2019 interview, she stated that she cannot wear a bathing suit to the beach for fear of public harassment from photographers due to her fame.[5]
