Shadya

Ce titre est une acquisition.

Shadya Zoabi, a 17-year-old from a small Arab village in northern Israel, is a world karate champion. She is also a Muslim who lives according to her own distinct principles.

Shadya's brothers are against her involvement in karate. In their view, a Muslim woman has a specific path in life, and it is forbidden to stray from this destiny. In spite of Shadya's father's support, the social pressure from her brothers and the community is difficult to overcome.

Shadya is a story about the coming of age of a young woman who wants to succeed on her own terms, but who is still committed to her life within the Muslim community. Will she succeed in balancing her ambitions after her marriage? Will she stay a world champion? Original Arabic and Hebrew with English subtitles.
