Egypt
In Trapped, a group of women coming from different social backgrounds, find themselves trapped by their quest for freedom. The film tackles the broader sense of getting trapped sometimes in one’s own thoughts. The entrapment here is not necessarily limited to the concrete walls and shackles, but it is sometimes imposed by the inner conflicts and ideas.
The women share similar dreams of breaking free from the social constraints, however their different social backgrounds create a contrast when it comes to the levels of awareness, openness and methods to rebel against their present realities.
