The program of pretty much every edition of the Karlovy Vary festival features a film about a freethinker who had the misfortune of being born in an Arabic conservative country, and who is trying to defy the local regime. This year it was Papicha. It is very well put together, but, at the same time, it’s one of those films where everything is more or less clear in advance. Just like it’s clear that in a year we will see something very similar. A must-see it might not be, but watching it won’t hurt. #KVIFF2019

This socially engaged film follows the rebellion of several Algerian students against attacks by conservative extremist groups, trampling on women's free rights in the name of religion, which forces them to wear the hijab and observe religious customs. The spontaneous and energetically filmed feature, filled with natural actresses, tells the tale of characters who love their country and do not want to leave it, and are therefore forced to fight by all means against the oppressive and binding regime, because resisting even at the cost of potential victims is necessary in order for any social change to ever occur. However, the value of the film as an important political expression is in this case significantly higher than its plot and narrative qualities.
