Synopsis

This documentary follows in the tracks of teenage girls living on the streets of Cairo, Egypt, a universe of violence, but also of freedom. These girls own a surprising strength, mixing necessary laughter with the toughness needed to survive day after day. Their existence, their lives and the codes they follow challenge the social model. Their days are sown with threats; sometimes it is the police and their raids, other times, the kidnappings carried out by their street fellows as well as the fights that sometimes get out of hand. Yet, through their dances, laughter and acrobatics these women and mothers offer us a glimpse which reminds us that they are still children.

gollark: When I do OC I just spent half an hour having to program recipes into my AE2 autocrafter for the myriad OC components and subcomponents, which is not fun.
gollark: CC computers are non-evil enough to craft that you can use them as "microcontrollers" to, say, move items around.
gollark: I too enjoy crafting something like 20 different components and recipe items to make a basic computer.
