Prvenec Leyle Bouzid z zgodbo o mladem dekletu, ki sku{a z glasbo spremeniti vsakdan, v katerem `ivi, spregovori o vplivu arabske pomladi na `ivljenje mladih v glavnem mestu Tunizije.
Spotlighting a young girl who seeks to fully enjoy life by finding recourse in music, Leyla Bouzid's film debut examines the influence of the Arab Spring movement on young people in the capital of Tunisia.
Osemnajstletna Farah `ivi v Tunisu. Leta 2010, le nekaj mesecev pred jasminovo revolucijo, uspe{no maturira in njena dru`ina se `e veseli, da bo kmalu postala uspe{na zdravnica. A Farah si je `ivljenje zamislila povsem druga~e: poje v politi~no anga`irani rockovski skupini, nemalokrat popiva s prijatelji in u`iva v no~nem `ivljenju velemesta. To pa ni pogodu njeni materi Hayet, ta se {e predobro zaveda vseh nevarnosti, ki v senci prihajajo~e revolucije pre`ijo na njeno h~er.
Tunis, summer 2010, a few months before the Revolution: Farah, 18 years old, has just graduated and her family already see her as a future doctor. But she doesn't have the same idea. She sings in a political rock band, has a passion for life, gets drunk, discovers her city by night against the wishes of her mother Hayet, who knows Tunisia and its imminent dangers all too well.
"Tisto poletje je zaznamovalo posebno ozra~je, ob~utenje slepe ulice, da bo nekaj navsezadnje eksplodiralo. Mlade je obvladoval nemir, zoperstavljali so se z glasbo, blogi, spletom in lastno eksistenco. Oni so vir energije za poznej{e dogodke, vir energije za ta film. /.../ Farah sodi med te mlade, ki `elijo `ivljenje polno zau`iti navkljub pritisku dru`ine in povsod pri~ujo~e policijske dr`ave. Kot svobodna in impulzivna pevka je glas generacije, ki vsakodnevno nasprotuje." (Leyla Bouzid)

"There was a special atmosphere that summer, the feeling of being in a dead end, that something would eventually explode. Young people were in turmoil, they resisted through music, blogging, Internet and their very existence. It is they that provided the energy for what happened later, it is from them that the energy of this film has come. /.../ Farah is one of these young people who seek to live life to the full despite family pressure and an omnipresent police state. As a free and impulsive singer, she is the voice of a generation that resists daily." (Leyla Bouzid)
