The growing participation of women’s role in Middle Eastern Film
cinema signal a progress of movement away from a contemporary Middle Eastern
Society where women had less role in the society to more of a Democratic society where everyone have a freedom to do things they enjoy. This article listed Arab women from Egypt, Tunisia,
Palestine, and Lebanon, who are a key producer of Film on their country. The article
mention that even though production of film in the Middle East has been in existence
for a long period of time, the increasing growth and rise of women role within
the film industry started around the same time of the Arab Spring in 2010. It got me thinking that despite the fact
that there’s hasn't been a definite answer as to whether the Democracy is the
right thing for Middle Eastern countries, the struggles towards democracy do
have some positive result: like addressing the issues of gender roles within
society and giving people a voice.
