![]() It's Sunday morning. Chahinaz has a meeting with a few girls in Mordacs, a "disadvantaged" district of Champigny, a Paris suburb. Chahinaz wants to know how life is in France for these women of North African origin. Instinctively she has the feeling that these women should have more freedom than in Algeria. But she's also heard that in France, girls of North African origin, suffer the usual pressures of brothers and the family in general. Chahinaz has followed very carefully the cases of violence against girls in cities. The high-profile cases of rape have made a great impression on her; and in addition, the case of the veil in France has had a lot of echoes abroad. It's a confusing picture: one day, France is described as the country of freedom and equality and the next day, the suburbs are shown as a terrifying ghettoes... Chahinaz wants to get a first-hand account herself. |
