We look at the perception of bellydance and bellydancers through the lens of the film industry. This also gives us an insight into the society and customs of the times. A fascinating course through which we can gain a better understanding of the position of bellydancers within society. Compiled and written by Yasmina of Cairo who brings her unique experience to her analysis of each film.
