What is Balady ?

The ''Balady'' project observes how gender roles and models affect our bodies through belly dancing and cultural exchanges. The aim of the project is to explore the narratives and practices related to our bodies by organizing belly dance workshops in Cairo and Barcelona, interviewing women who practice this dance, observing street artists and activists in Egypt, Tunisia and Spain and producing a short-movie which will be screened in different cities (Cairo, Barcelona, Berlin, etc.).
