This historical drama, which Tunisian director Moufida Tlatli has described as inspired by the life of her mother, explores the lives of two generations of women living in a palace under the French protectorate. Released 38 years after Tunisian independence, in a country whose post-colonial leaders presented themselves as women’s rights reformers whilst limiting women’s autonomous organisation, the film explores the class dimensions of women’s social and sexual oppression and their forms of resistance. All films are in original languages with English subtitles.
This event is part of the ‘Decolonisation in Motion’ film season organised by University College at the Bodleian Library, 10 October-14 November 2023 www.univ.ox.ac.uk/news/decolonisation-in-motion
In addition to the film, there will be 30-45 minutes of presentation, discussion, and Q&A.
