SYNOPSIS
MYOPIA 
BY SANAE AKROUD
2020, 86 MIN, MOROCCO 

Myopia is about a woman, Fatem, six months pregnant, who leaves her remote village in the Atlas mountains of Morocco to repair the eyeglasses of the village elder, the only person who can read letters sent by village men and women who have migrated to work in the city. She transits from station to station only to arrive in town in the middle of a social protest. This will turn her trip into an inner revolution.
