Olfas Töchter
OLFAS TÖCHTER tells the extraordinary story of Olfa and her four daughters. A story so incredible that it seems like fiction. Awarded four prizes in Cannes, including Best Documentary Film.
The life of Olfa, a Tunisian woman and mother of four daughters, fluctuates between light and shadow. One day, her two eldest daughters disappear. In order to bridge their absence in the film, Kaouther Ben Hania hires professional actresses and creates an extraordinary cinematic device to lift the veil on the story of Olfa and her daughters. An intimate journey full of hope, rebellion, violence, transference and sisterhood that questions the foundations of our societies.
