Bahrain, the Forbidden Country
In February and March 2011, footage was circulated around the world of brutally suppressed demonstrations in the capital city of Bahrain, Manama, in which tens of thousands participated. These Arab Spring protests were directed against the absolutist rule of the royal family, which didn’t hesitate to use live ammunition. Dozens were killed; thousands disappeared or were detained or tortured. Bahrain disappeared from our television screens after a few weeks. However, Stéphanie Lamorré’s documentary shows that a human tragedy is still being played out behind this veil of indifference.
