DOKUMENTALE SUMMER SPECIAL : KABUL BEAUTY (french with english subtitles)
D.: Margaux Benn, Solène Chalvon-Fioriti
FR 2023, 52 Min.
Their names are Sofia and Nigina. They’re Afghans, beautiful, proud, best friends. And, despite themselves and without knowing it, icons of Kabul’s idle youth. Behind the curtains of their beauty salon, whose exterior has been ransacked by the Taliban, they support a small team and a dream: to protect their last space of freedom.
Sophia and Nigina’s salon is situated in central Kabul. Around twenty employees work there, seven days a week. It’s a sanctuary for women: a place where men do not enter. Somewhere to get pampered, comfort each other and talk about the country’s situation
