Somalia - Short film about a safe house for women




Key sentence for me:

'and then they have opportunities to learn things that help them move away from being so dependent on the communities that were inflicting harm on them and become self-sufficient'

The project aims to enable:

'transformational change'

The women leave the safe house with:

'momentum, confidence and the skills that they will need to live the lives they were destined to'

In the midst of a crackdown on gay men in Egypt, we discuss Mohammed Abdel Nabi’s novel about being gay in Cairo, In The Spider’s Room. Also: a portrait of a love-hate relationship with a Cairo neighborhood, an award for Arabic Young Adult and children’s literature, a Saudi novelist under attack online, and a Palestinian poet whose trial hinges on translation.

40 mins of discussion in English.

I may give the times when each topic starts if I listen to it all and make the necessary notes. Feel free to do this for me if you listen to it all before I do.
