Black and Arab: The hidden reality of racism in Tunisia
Nareeman Dosa, Saudi-born of Sudanese heritage, grew up in the Arab world experiencing the casual racism that most Black Arabs face.
In this film, she visits Tunisia, the first Arab country to have made racial discrimination a criminal offence, and embarks on a journey to explore whether the law can change deep-rooted prejudice.
Through her meetings with activists who campaigned for the new law and those who have used it to tackle cases of discrimination, Nareeman’s investigation turns into a visceral personal journey into the social and personal issues facing Black Arabs. As she interacts with other Black Arab women, she’s forced to confront the deep scars of the racism she herself endured as she was growing up.
