IN THE SHADOW OF A MAN
Wafaa, Suzanne, Shahinda, Badreya are four women from different backgrounds who belong to different generations. They are connected by the current changes in Egypt before and after the revolution as well as in their quest for self-determination. This film interweaves their stories and images from their everyday lives into a document in which the small things that inform the lives of these four women -- their thoughts, their experience of marriage and their wedding night, divorce, family, violence, abuse, work and migration -- come together to form an impressive social portrait.
