Bravo Chahinaz!!!! Nous avons besoin de femmes comme toi et j’espere que beaucoup (femmes et hommes!) ont eu l’occasion de regarder ton film et d’ecouter ton message, qui est pour moi un message d’espoir.. car il faut commencer par se poser des questions et essayer de trouver des reponses et ainsi nous pouvons progresser ou qu’on soit. Merci Chahinaz pour representer si bien la femme Algerienne!

I really love this documentary. And I am impressed by Chahinaz’s courage and determination to make a difference. Seeing this film made me realize that I am not alone. There are other women who want to change things for women in Algeria and I feel proud. As an Algerian woman how grew up in Algeria and moved to the United States in my teens, I relate with Chahinaz and commend her for her courage to actually do something about this topic. The struggle starts here: by making people aware that there is a situation and that we want to talk and implement solutions. I agree that Religion should not be used to explain cultural behavior (whether it relates to women treatment or terrorist acts). We should not and should not let others clean their bloody knives in Islam (yemmes-hou el mouss fi eddine). And I agree that women all around the world still don’t have the same standing as men do. The symbol for oppressed women is not the veiled Arab-Muslim woman. It is every woman that lives in an abusive relationship or has to walk behind her husband or has to give birth and stay home.
Again, I am proud of you Chahinaz! W vive l’Agerie
