Re:Verzió

Following the Arab Spring in Libya, director Naziha Arebi closely observed what stood in the way of a women’s football team. She followed a group of determined women for several years in this empowering film, as they fought for their right to play in the competitive world of football dominated by men. The struggles and hardships risk the integrity of the team, and perhaps not everyone will be able to save their dream.
