CANNES: Tunisian director Kaouther Ben Hania mixes fiction and documentary to capture the story of Olfa Hamrouni, whose older daughters left to fight for Daesh in “Four Daughters,” her first entry for the Cannes Film Festival’s top prize.
The only Arab entry in competition follows Hamrouni, who drew international attention in 2016 for criticizing Tunisian authorities for failing to stop one of her daughters from fleeing to Libya to join her sister in fighting for the militant group. The film was supported by Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea Film Foundation.
