 m. 2018\, 75 mins. DCP. In Arabic with English subtitles. In this intimate
  and enlightening documentary\, a group of Syrian women living as refugees
  come together in Beirut to perform the ancient Greek play Antigone. Thank
 s to a project organized by the Open Art Foundation in 2014\, the women we
 re invited to participate in a theater workshop\, which created a space fo
 r community and provided tools to help them process their trauma as a resu
 lt of the ongoing conflict in Syria. Whether they are gossiping at a seasi
 de café or engaging in long-forgotten pleasures at a night-time fairground
 \, these poignant scenes are where intense discussion and transformation t
 ake place. This film focuses on the strong\, resilient\, and often hilario
 us Syrian women who are moving forward in spite of the ever-worsening situ
 ation back home. View trailer \n	\n	\n	Following the screening\, producer
