Information - Papicha

Set in Algiers during 1997, the movie *Papicha* portrays a gripping tale of resistance against oppression. At a time when terrorists seeking to establish a regressive Islamic state dominate the city, women face severe restrictions on their freedom. These extremists aim to control every aspect of women’s lives, from their clothing to their presence in public spaces. Amidst this stifling environment, Nedjma, a spirited young student, dreams of a brighter future. Her passion for fashion becomes a powerful form of rebellion as she plans to organize a fashion show, defying the oppressive forces around her. *Papicha* is a moving story of courage, creativity, and the fight for self-expression in the face of adversity.
