Dunia
Jocelyne Saab
Driven by the powerful eroticism of Arab poetry and music, Dunia is a sensual film on female desire, a notoriously taboo subject in the Arab world, especially in the Egyptian society where the film takes place, through the experience of a young woman traditionally and strictly educated. The film leads to the trauma provoked by female genital mutilation and it was censored by the Egyptian authorities on the occasion of the premiere in Cairo where it was shot.
