All-Women Arab Bands Blazing a Trail in Syria & Morocco
August 23, 2023 – Meet the Takht ensemble in Syria and the Chefchaouen Hadra Sufi band from Morocco, all-women bands making their names and performing to big audiences. We go backstage with both groups, sharing the pain of long rehearsals, the planning of far-away concerts, the adrenalin of live performances and life away from the spotlight. Some balance music with motherhood, others study and perform at the same time. Family support is mixed; many husbands encourage their wives’ musical careers, while other men are less supportive. The film celebrates contemporary Arab female bands as they break barriers, preserve heritage music and overcome obstacles – all to a great soundtrack.
