Winner of two awards at the Cairo Film Festival, including the Critics' Prize, “Spring came on laughing” is one of the biggest surprises of the year, with a series of situations in which Egyptian women reveal their greatest secrets and anxieties, in a film that is as liberating and emancipating as it is frightening. It's a triumph for a new author, Noha Adel, who is sure to be talked about for a long time to come.
