The Hour of Liberation Has Arrived

Directed by Heiny Srour • 1974 • France, Lebanon, United Kingdom

In the late 1960s, the region of Dhofar in Oman rose up against the British-backed Sultanate in a democratic, Leninist guerrilla revolution. Director Heiny Srour and her team crossed five hundred miles of desert and mountains by foot, under bombardment by the British Royal Air Force, to reach the conflict zone and capture this rare record of an anticolonial war in which women played a central role.
