Egypte, 1996, 80mins, docu, Arabe sous-titré en anglais.

Réalisé par Atteyat Al-Abnoudy.

In this landmark documentary, filmmaker Ateyyat El-Abnoudy records the successes and failures of the female candidates in the 1995 elections of the people’s assembly in Egypt. Because of the tremendous lack of coverage that female politicians receive and the difficulty in contacting them, El-Abnoudy was forced to shoot for 20 days straight, crisscrossing the entire country in her search for interviews. Despite the ultimately disappointing electoral results, this documentary is optimistic in its portrayal of Egyptian women and the role they are struggling to play in shaping their nation’s future.
