A child pulls a tooth from the mouth of a lion.
In Moroccan culture, there is an expression: to take something from the mouth of a lion — it means facing danger and claiming what you need.
The title Resurgam means “I will rise again.” It reflects the strength to stand up after collapse and to rebuild after hardship.
