There are some situations where the very act of making a #film or TV series seems heroic. This director Ahmed Farah in #Somalia for instance.

Haifaa Al-Mansour, who made 'Wadjda' in #SaudiArabia is another. A female film director in a country where women couldn't even drive. For outdoor scenes, She had to direct hidden inside a van.

No idea what this Somali TV series is like, but Wadjda's a lovely film.
