In the
stormy aftermath of the peace accord signed between Israel and the
PLO, Palestinian spokeswoman Hanan Ashrawi emerged as a formidable
negotiator and a persuasive voice on the international stage. But
beyond the polished rhetoric and the public poise, what drives the
47-year-old mother of two whose high profile and personal integrity
have made her enemies as well as friends?
In this
very personal portrait, Palestinian director Mai Masri profiles
Ashrawi, exploring how she manages to juggle her responsibilities as
political activist, writer and mother - against the backdrop of
challenges facing the Palestinians in the struggle to build a viable
state.
