About

Freedom Fields (directed by Naziha Arebi)

Filmed over five years, FREEDOM FIELDS follows three women and their football team in post-revolution Libya, as the country descends into civil war and the utopian hopes of the Arab Spring begin to fade. Through the eyes of these accidental activists, we see the reality of a country in transition, where the personal stories of love and aspirations collide with History.

An intimate film about hope, struggle and sacrifice in a land where dreams seem a luxury. A love letter to sisterhood and the power of team.

"An impressive debut (…) A moving tribute to the solidarity and determination of its female subjects, the offers up hope that sport can be a vehicle for progressive social change." ★★★★ TOTAL Film

“Nahiza Arebi’s visually arresting documentary… superbly made, stirring documentary” ★★★★ The Guardian

Language: Arabic with English subtitles
