NOTES

Directed by Jawad Rhablib

Hiam Abbass, Zouzou Ben Chikha, Chokri Ben Chikha

In a film that gives voice to Arabs worldwide who refuse to be defined by stereotypes of repression and fundamentalism, director Jawad Rhalib questions the many facets of his culture that have sadly been forgotten by western and middle eastern media alike - especially its love for dancing and music. An important and timely reminder that the creative arts have always been an integral part of the great texture of the Arab identity
