“A revelatory, poignant blend of drama, memory, and self-scrutiny.”

– Richard Brody, The New Yorker

“Absorbing and devastating… An enthralling narrative about memory, motherhood and the inherited traumas of a patriarchal society.”

– Lovia Gyarkye, The Hollywood Reporter

“One of the best films of the year. Full of joy and laughter, as well as tears.. but most of all, it’s filled with life, and all the triumphs

and pleasure, pain and disappointments that go with it.”

– G. Allen Johnson, San Francisco Chronicle

“Genuinely hard to forget. It will linger with you for days afterward.”

– Gregory Ellwood, The Playlist

“Fascinating, gripping … a rare and deeply penetrating film.”

– Farah Cheded, Paste

Kino Lorber is proud to present Academy Award-nominee Kaouther Ben Hania’s Cannes prizewinning documentary Four Daughters, winner of the Golden Eye for Best Documentary at the Cannes Film Festival and the official Tunisian entry for Best International Feature at the 96th Academy Awards.

Four Daughters opens on February 23rd

in theaters in Miami at O Cinema.

A riveting exploration of rebellion, memory, and sisterhood, Four Daughters reconstructs the story of Olfa Hamrouni and her four daughters, unpacking a complex family history through intimate interviews and performance to examine how the Tunisian woman’s two eldest daughters were radicalized. Casting professional actresses as the missing eldest daughters Ghofrane and Rahma, along with acclaimed Egyptian-Tunisian actress Hend Sabri as Olfa, director Kaouther Ben Hania restages pivotal moments in the family’s life, interwoven with confessions and reflections from Olfa and younger daughters Eya and Tayssir that capture moments of joy, loss, violence, and heartache. Four Daughters is a compelling portrait of five women and a unique and ambitious work of nonfiction storytelling that questions the nature of memory, the weight of inherited trauma, and the ties that bind mother and daughter.
