The Mountaineer's Daughters is an Algerian documentary directed by Wiame Awres, in which she embarks on a personal inquiry into the lives of two remarkable women in her family. Her mother Turquia was a dancer who carried the art of movement as a form of expression; her grandmother Khadidja El Djeblia was a resistance fighter who risked her life during the Algerian War of Independence. The film asks how lived experience is passed down across generations — through stories, silences, and bodies — and draws a quietly powerful connection between art, resistance, and what it means to be a woman in Algeria across different eras.
