Murad Ben Cheikh, director of the film ‘‘No more fear‘‘. 
Ben Cheikh allows us to enter into the personal lives of three Tunisians struggling for freedom as they witness and experience the Revolution.  And through these three characters, we are given larger insight into the entire country’s struggle.
‘No More Fear’ was given a Special Screening at the Cannes Film Festival this past May where Ben Cheikh was quoted as saying, “For a long time, my rage was silent, my eyes unable to look on with feeling. But that day of 14 January brought me strong feelings, I wept over it. The film had to seize this new, very particular, atmosphere that was in the streets and the slogans that have continued to reverberate since January 14th.  After two days of filming, I knew that the main idea of the film was FEAR‘‘, he says.
