ABOUT THE FILMS: MURDERESS, 2023, Dir. Eva Nathena, 97 Mins, Tanweer, Greece In Greek with English subtitles. On a remote island in Greece, circa 1900, Hadoula, trapped in her own mother’s rejection, struggles to survive following the dictates of a patriarchal society. Mentally humiliated, amidst the discrediting of her very status as a woman, she wants to be freed not only from her persecutors, but also from her own fate, that of a person who has lost her way. Based on the classic masterpiece by Alexandros Papadiamantis, MURDERESS’ story revolves around the dominant mother-daughter dipole and the dominant pattern of women’s relationships with each other that initially influence the microcosm of the family and then that of provincial society. FORMAT: DCP EVERYBODY LOVES TOUDA, 2024, Dir. Nabil Ayouch, 101 Mins, mk2 Films, France/Morocco/Belgium/Denmark/Netherlands/Norway In Arabic with English subtitles. Impressible Touda only dreams of one thing: being a Sheikha, a respected traditional Moroccan performer empowered by the lyrics of the fierce female poets who came before her – with their songs of resistance, love and emancipation. Performing every evening in provincial bars under the lustful gaze of men, Touda plans to set her sights on leaving her small village for the bright lights of Casablanca where she hopes to be recognized as a true artist and also secure a better future for her and her son.
