We Are Not Princesses is a powerful documentary about four Syrian women living as refugees in Beirut who find strength, solidarity, and catharsis through the ancient art of theater. Coming together to perform Sophocles' timeless tragedy Antigone, they use the play as a vehicle to share their own stories of love, loss, pain, and persisting hope. The film is a profound testament to the resilience of the human spirit, showing how art can give voice to those who have been silenced by war and displacement. A moving portrait of refugee women reclaiming their narratives, We Are Not Princesses speaks to universal themes of belonging, grief, and the healing power of storytelling.
