Freedom Is a Habit I’m Trying to Learn is this intimate, almost meditative documentary that pulls you right into the lives of four women navigating their new realities after leaving Syria and Lebanon. Each segment is like a quiet window, showing their worlds in Zutphen, Oslo, Washington DC, and Sharjah. The pacing is deliberate, creating space for their stories to breathe. The cooking scenes—simple yet profound—become a bridge connecting their pasts with the present. It’s not just about displacement; it’s about resilience and redefining home. You can feel the weight of their experiences, the subtle emotions that linger just beneath the surface. It’s a film that invites reflection, rather than demanding it. Quite a unique piece in terms of its storytelling approach.
