Outline
A graceful, subtle film which probes the oppression and suffering of Tunisian wives and mothers. Confined to the island of Djerba while the men enjoy the freedom to live and work where they will, returning for a month's 'season' to their families, the women merit Tlatli's sensitive plea for understanding, compassion and change.
Reviews
