| | |  | LIBYA & TUNISIA | Home » » Adalil: The Mistress of Tents | | | | | | | Description: | | To the western world, the veiled men looking down proudly from the backs of their camels have always embodied the nobel knights of the desert. Up to now, however, we have heard little about the mothers, the wives and sisters of the Tuareg nomads on the forgotten edges of the Sahara.
This fascinating film documents the independence and vitality of these sisters of the dunes in their quarrels with their veiled husbands. These women reflect upon their lives, their children, the roles their husbands play, and the differences between their traditional lives and of those who move to the city. | | | Features: | |
• Rare look into the African Tuareg culture
• Roles women play in this nomadic community
