A Veiled revolution

Egypt was the first Arab country where women marched in political demonstrations and took off the veil. Today, however, the granddaughters of the early feminists are returning to traditional garb, sometimes with full face veil and gloves, which they call Islamic dress. The film attempts to explore the reasons for this new movement and its religious and political aspects.
