  • A Whisper to a Roar Presents the Inspiring And
    A Whisper to a Roar presents the inspiring and dangerous work of democracy activists in five countries around the world - Egypt, Malaysia, Ukraine Venezuela and Zimbabwe. The film’s subjects span the full spectrum of democratic activists: student leaders (Venezuela); young professionals (Egypt); currently active opposition politicians (Malaysia and Zimbabwe) and a former president (Ukraine). These heros tell their compelling personal stories of struggle with the oppressive regimes ruling their countries, now or in the past. The activists come from a variety of cultures and live on different continents, yet they all take enormous risks to pursue political freedom for their people and aspire for accountable government. In each country, the regimes and rulers that oppress their people use remarkably similar techniques and the activists’ most successful techniques are also remarkably alike, regardless of their circumstances. The presence in the film of accomplished democrats, both the famous and the unsung, from diverse cultures and religions, will inspire and instruct viewers around the world of widely varying ages, nationalities, and political persuasions. “This deft digest from the director Ben Moses is by turns shocking and inspiring…” New York Times “In the case of the new documentary A Whisper to a Roar, democracy and the fight for freedom are not only moving, but also deeply personal, thought-provoking and inspiring.” The Huffington Post “An expertly drawn primer on the soft dictatorships that constrained five different countries and the peaceful revolutions that sought to expunge them.” The Village Voice “The film is not only a riveting documentary, but also offers inspiration to people everywhere who seek to make governments accountable to the citizens they serve’ Hillary Clinton For further information or screeners contact: [email protected] +44 (0) 788 147 3603 www.sidewaysfilm.com.

  • A WHISPER to a ROAR 1Pg Overview 24Oct2012-2
    A WHISPER TO A ROAR Five Stories (TRT: 94 min) A documentary on the global struggle for democracy. With Music from Randy Newman and Peter Gabriel. Animation Narration by Alfred Molina. Cinematography by Academy Award Winner Harris Done. Written & Directed by Emmy Award Winner Ben Moses Produced by Amy Martinez & Ben Moses French philosopher Voltaire once cautioned, “It is dangerous to be right when the government is wrong.” As the powerful new documentary A WHISPER TO A ROAR demonstrates, Voltaire’s warning has never been truer than it is today. This film explores the heroic efforts of courageous democracy activists in five countries – Egypt, Malaysia, Ukraine, Venezuela and Zimbabwe - and the challenges posed by the dictators they oppose(d). The film's subjects span the full spectrum of democratic activists: student leaders (Venezuela); young professionals (Egypt); currently active opposition politicians (Malaysia and Zimbabwe) and a former president (Ukraine). They come from a variety of cultures and live on different continents, yet they all aspire for justice and accountability from their governments and take enormous risks to pursue political freedom for themselves and their fellow citizens. Shot over three years and finalized in July 2012 by award-winning filmmaker, Ben Moses, the film was inspired by the work of Stanford University’s Larry Diamond, author of “The Spirit of Democracy” and Director of Stanford University’s Center for Democracy, Development, and the Rule of Law. It was funded by The Moulay Hicham Foundation, whose benefactor, Prince Moulay Hicham of Morocco, is a renowned public intellectual and democracy advocate, particularly in regards to the Middle East.

P. 97 2 Aminah Kandar Refusing the Backseat: Women as Drivers of the Arab Uprisings Introduction "The people want the fall of the regime" is a slogan that reverberated throughout the Arab Spring uprisings in the last two years. These interconnected protests were comprised of men, women and even children who demanded freedom, economic equality and democracy.1 This paper examines the role of women in the protests and assesses the extent to which they drove the uprisings in Tunisia, Egypt and Yemen. As seen through video footage, photos, news reports and eye witness accounts, women played a frontline role in the protests that swept across the Arab world.2 In this paper, I suggest that women were active participants in the Tunisian uprisings; whereas, in Egypt and Yemen, they were among the main drivers of the uprisings. The term driver indicates that women pushed, directed and guided the protests with vigorous determination, meaning they were key organizers and leaders 1 “The Arab Awakening: The Death of Fear,” Video, 1:00:00, from Al Jazeera English, posted February 20, 2012.
