SYNOPSIS

Tunisia’s revolution as lived through three individuals: Lina Ben Mhenni, blogger, a small feisty woman who dared defy Ben Ali’s regime by posting the wave of revolt, which started in Sidi Bouzid, on her blog; Radhia Nasraoui, lawyer, fierce human rights advocate, who paid dearly for her activism, as did her husband who was often imprisoned; and Karem Cherif, journalist, writer armed with a bat and supported by his family to protect his neighborhood during the dark days that followed Ben Ali’s flight… One common denominator in all these stories: fear, felt by all Tunisians, tyrannizing their lives, and leaving a legacy on a battered Tunisian population. Defying it today, a unanimous outcry: no more fear!
