Veiled Voices

Veiled Voices is an hour long documentary that introduces the American audience to the world of Muslim women religious leaders, women who are reviving their leadership role in Islam across the Middle East. Women across the Middle East are trying to reclaim their role as leaders in Islam. Veiled Voices goes in-depth into the world of three Muslim women religious leaders, who say women were always meant to be powerful within the religion. Filmed over the course of two years in Lebanon, Syria and Egypt, Veiled Voices reveals a world rarely documented, exploring both the public and private lives of these luminary women. Each triumphs over difficult challenges as they carve out a space to lead - both in Islam and in their communities.
