Four Daughters is a Tunisian documentary-drama hybrid that blurs the line between reality and performance. Olfa, a mother of four, faces an unimaginable tragedy when two of her daughters vanish. Rather than a conventional investigation, filmmaker Kaouther Ben Hania reconstructs their stories by casting professional actresses to inhabit the missing daughters' lives. The result is a haunting, innovative portrait of a family fractured by absence. Through staged scenes and intimate interviews, the film explores themes of hope, rebellion, violence, and sisterhood across generations. Ben Hania's bold formal experiment transforms personal grief into a meditation on how societies fail women and families, creating an unforgettable examination of loss, resilience, and the stories we tell to survive.
