SP 02 Arab Shorts

A region like a kaleidoscope come to life, full of multifaceted stories: from Tunisia to Lebanon young people have to make decisions both large and small. Religious doubts take root, family quarrels flare, while gender roles determine the course of maturation into adulthood. In a balancing act between humor and tragedy, Arab worlds are made accessible, in all their differences and commonalities.
