Movie Synopsis:

The concept of this documentary film was born from the director Salim Saab's desire to break down stereotypes about Arab women. The women, principally from Lebanon but also Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Tunisia, speak for themselves, about themselves - of their art, their daily lives and their perception of feminism.

Movie Synopsis:

In her directorial debut, Mary Jirmanus Saba deals with a forgotten revolution, saving from oblivion bloodily suppressed strikes at Lebanese tobacco and chocolate factories. These events from the 1970s, which held the promise of a popular revolution and, with it, of women's emancipation were erased from collective memory by the country's civil wars. Rich in archival footage from Lebanon's militant cinema tradition, the film reconstructs the spirit of that revolt, asking of the past how we might transform the present.

Through the eyes of these accidental activists, we see the reality of a country in transition, where the personal stories of love and aspirations collide with History. A love letter to sisterhood and the power of 'team'.
