Documentary film Amal
Filmed over five years, Amal is an observational self-discovering journey following Amal, an Egyptian teenager, while she grows from age 14 till 20 searching for her place and identity in a male-dominant society and a country in constant political turmoil. Amal, whose name literally translates to “hope”, is carving a place for herself within this hostile environment by defying the older generation and her pro-state family.
