In “Anqa,” three courageous Arab women in post-trauma reclaim their voices in the face of patriarchal oppression. Within their personal safe zones, they confront their histories of violence while forging paths of resilience. Rather than dwell on graphic depictions, the film intimately explores their present lives, revealing the profound impact of their struggles. Through their stories, “Anqa” illuminates the intertwined nature of individual trauma and societal injustice, offering a poignant testament to the power of speaking out.
