Metropolis Empire Sofil

Imprisoned women, whether mothers or daughters, take center stage in “Scheherazade’s Diary,” a documentary filmed throughout the drama therapy/theater project set up by director Zeina Daccache in 2012 in Baabda’s Prison. The women inmates mine the depths of personal experience and confront patriarchy as they prepare and present the first theater play staged inside an Arab women’s prison.

This film will be screened in Cinema 1.
