For Tunisian filmmaker Moufida Tlatli, living in silence is a woman's most terrifying condition, yet all too often in parts of the Arab world it has been their most common condition.

Tunisia in the 1950s is the sumptuous setting for THE SILENCES OF THE PALACE, a drama of memory and motherhood, of political and sexual power. Director Tlatli's quietly observant eye records the beauty and the horror of this stifling, now vanished world.
