SYNOPSIS
In the Atlas Mountains in Morocco, Berber women who are carpet weavers at night, reflect on their knowledge, their traditions, their lives, and their future. Mothers, daughters, grandmothers… all work hard, doing housework and making traditional carpets. Being in self-sustaining economy, they remain without financial independence. They are fiercely determined to lift themselves from the condition they are in, and to offer schooling as well as a future to their children.
