Synopsis: A feature film anthology composed of five short films from Jordan, Tunisia, Lebanon, Egypt and Morocco, it narrates the suffering of women from five different worlds, but with similar circumstances, as they face oppression and injustice, yet they do not stop their struggle and cling to hope for a better life. Their “films” deal with issues of gender equality with the aim of spreading awareness of gender-based violence, equal access to education, health care, and decent working conditions, as well as representation in political and economic decision-making processes. The film was developed and produced under the supervision of the Royal Film Commission of Jordan, within the framework of the regional project of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization and funded by the European Union.
