WOMEN IN STRUGGLE Directed by | Buthina Canaan Khoury Genre documentary | Length: 56mins | Year of production: 2004 "Women in Struggle" presents rare testimony from four female Palestinian exprisoners who disclose their experiences during their years of imprisonment in Israeli jails and the effect it has had on their present and future lives. Once content to live their lives as sisters, wives and mothers, each of the women became active members in the national fight for Palestinian independence, though their �crimes' differed markedly: one woman was detained in a peaceful protest while another was arrested for her participation in a bombing. Their painful recollections provide a fascinating personal perspective on their motives for political involvement, reveal their struggles in prison and define the difficulties they have faced and continue to face adjusting to life in Palestinian society.
