Hana’s spring
Sophie Zarifian and Simon Desjobert / 55 mn / 2013

Hana has just turned 18. She lives in Cairo and has been involved in the Revolution since its very first day, on January 25, 2011. With her characteristic spontaneity and the fresh eyes of a young girl discovering political commitment, she is looking for a way to become actively involved in bringing about far-reaching change in the country. In her family, in a new political party, in her group of friends with whom she is creating a newspaper, or in the streets meeting other Egyptians, she is trying to find a place to make her voice heard.
