There is No Evil (Feature Film): The four stories that are variations on the crucial themes of moral strength and the death penalty that ask to what extent individual freedom can be expressed under a despotic regime and its seemingly inescapable threats.
Ain't No Time for Women (Short Film): Tunis, November 2019. A group of women is gathered at Saïda’s, the hairdresser, on the eve of the presidential election. The salon is transformed into a town square, mirroring the internal turmoil of the country. In this female sanctuary, we get an intimate look at the country’s teenage democracy.
About the Pairing:
A contextual contrast, and very different situation, to the Iran shown in There Is No Evil, Ain’t No Time for Women follows the conversations of a group of Tunisian women learning to exercise the rights and shoulder the burdens of a brand new democracy.
