Overview
Women Without Men is an Arabic social drama that explores power, control, and family conflict through the lives of three siblings. After a falling-out with her brother, a young woman retreats to the countryside to live with her older sister. She expects comfort but finds instead a household ruled with an iron hand — her sister governs domestic life by a rigid, uncompromising code that leaves no room for dissent. When the brother arrives for a visit and encounters this austere reality, the film turns into a quiet but probing examination of authority, gender, and the different ways people seek control within the walls of a family home.
