Part : 4 A Woman’s World
In Africa, as in so many other places, sports have traditionally been a man's world. And until
recently, women entered at the risk of being scorned or laughed at. But the amazing Sahar El-Hawary
and her female soccer team are no joke. She is the first women's referee in North Africa and also
the first female member of the Egyptian Football Federation. And she has put women's soccer on the
map - not just in her native Egypt but also in the entire Arab world. We follow Sahar through poor
and middle-class neighbourhoods of Cairo, a chaotic mega-city that's home to 20 million people. It's
here she recruits young women as soccer players and potential referees. Sahar is determined to break
down all barriers in her patriarchal Muslim society, but not everyone is willing to change. We meet
a young player from a poor area whose family is against women playing sports. Meeting her brothers,
we get a sense of the frustrations faced by young Egyptians, who wrestle with restrictions imposed
by tradition in many areas of their lives, from sports to romantic relationships.
