Moufida Tlatli was born in Sidi Bou Said, a suburb of the capital Tunis, on 4 August 1947. Her interest in cinema was piqued by her philosophy teacher. She moved to Paris in 1965, where she studied film editing and screenplay at the "Institut des hautes études cinématographiques". She subsequently went back to Tunisia in 1972 and started off as a film editor. One of the notable films she edited was "Halfaouine Child of the Terraces" (1990) by Férid Boughedir.
