This biopic follows Fatema Mernissi's life as a figure of Moroccan feminism. We follow her steps and interests through the days as she always stayed anchored in the political scene of her times. She shared her feminine side of living in a Muslim society and encouraged millions of women to open themselves to the world and break through frontiers they couldn't even dream of before. The movie is from the director's point of view who accompanied the sociologist in her works and investigations. Both observer and actor, all the memories resurface when he learns her death.
