Fatma

The position women occupy in today's Tunisia is more liberated than you might imagine.

Fatma (Awatef Jendoubi) a country girl who goes to university, unbinds her breasts once on campus, has an affair, then goes off to a village to be a teacher and fall in love with marriage in prospect.

How will she deal with the problem of her lost virginity?

Feminism and freedom versus tradition and (literal) bondage - it's a story told awkwardly, but none the less with sincerity by director Khaled Ghorbal.
