I want to start by thanking everyone for their support and for believing in this project from the start. After fundraising, I completed the documentary, employing an all female post production team and commissioning 5 lebanese female composers to create the original soundtrack. Building on the momentum of the documentary, I founded JEYETNA - an itersectional feminist organisation to fight period poverty. Our team organised a country-wide mobile festival in July and August 2021 targeting 12 different locations (prioritising remote areas, refugee camps), creating conversations around period poverty, and providing a safe space for discussion to those who need it the most. The festival was centred around the screening of the documentary, and hosted a free market-place where women received education and donations for period products as well as a “safe space” for women to access medical consultancies and therapy. Each event was tailored with different interventions (themed concerts, stand up comedy, workshops etc) and collaborations including local women’s rights NGOs who brought their expertise to the table. We covered 12 locations in 6 regions: Beirut, North Lebanon, Akkar, Baalbak- Hermel, Bekaa, South Lebanon in July and August 2021! Products were distirbuted to 600 women and 280 girls! The documentary is currently starting international distribution, and will be available online next year. To follow our future plans - Follow @jeyetna on social media! We couldn't of done it without you! Thank you again for believing in me and my cause and for contributing to the fight towards menstrual equity.
