Yalaan Bu El Fosfate (Cursed Be The Phosphate) - TRAILER
Tunisia 2012 - Directed by: Sami Tlili
Ahram Online Published in Ahram Online on 18 - 11 - 2013

Yalaan Bu El Fosfate details a revolt carried out by inhabitants of a Tunisian company town dependent on phosphate extraction against unsafe working conditions and government-supported corruption. The response from the Ben Ali regime was brutal, yet the Gafsa region temporarily withstood months of onslaught. Though inevitably unsuccessful and later eclipsed by the events of 2011, the uprising exposed cracks in the dictatorship's unassailability, paving the way for the 2011 Tunisian revolution.
