Puisque je suis née

Jawad Rhalib

Izza Zahra refuses to submit to the diktats of the men in her village. She will fight to be the first girl in her douar to continue her studies beyond secondary school. With a valiant heart, she embarks on a veritable uphill battle. For her, school is a real opportunity for her to realise her dreams, leave poverty behind and have a better life than her parents did. Izza dreams of becoming a botanist, but it is not enough to dream to succeed.
