Female Empowerment in the Arab world in 'The Source' - a movie at the 2011 Cannes film feastival
Radu Mihaileanu is the name of the movie instructor behind the movie The Source (La Source des Femmes), that has been described as 'a modern-day fable exploring female empowerment in the Arab world'. The film takes place in a distant, North African village where women decide to use the only weapon they have – sex – and go on a "love strike" that challenges traditional gender roles.
