Azza

Since 2018, women have been allowed to drive cars in Saudi Arabia. As a driving instructor in Jeddah, Azza stands up to everyday sexism and defends herself against the control and violence that her ex-husband continues to use to harass her and her children. Again and again, she seeks out and finds little spaces of freedom. Empathetically and sensitively observed by a female film team.
