It Takes a Village
Young women living in rural Egypt tend not to speak up for themselves in public. They avoid conversations for fear of being considered different and bold. But three young girls from different villages in Egypt meet to play an intimate game that helps them know one another on a more personal level. The conversation that emerges between them takes us on a journey to each girl’s village and her own unique journey of empowerment.
