In this winner of Best Film and Audience Award at Visions du Réel, filmmaker Jawad Rhalib documents diverse creative voices in the Muslim world - including his mother, a Moroccan dancer - who seek to free themselves from bonds of stereotypes and repression. The film forgoes conventional artist-profile tropes in favor of a weave of rehearsals, conversations, performances and a trove of archival materials that remind us of the long and often sensual history of dance and music found throughout the Arab world.
