Forced to live at home in Yemen – vpro Metropolis

1 min read



Taha is married and in Yemen that means you still live at home with your mother. Along with your wife, your children, your brothers and the rest of your family, all under one roof. Taha is sick and tired of living in chaos and wants to find his own place where he is left alone. The only question is whether his mother Saleha will let him go.

vpro Metropolis was a video project by Dutch broadcast organisation vpro, that ran from 2008 to 2015. Metropolis is made by a global collective of young filmmakers and TV producers, reporting on remarkable stories from their own country/city. We made a trip around the globe on one single issue: from local beauty ideals to Elvis impersonators, to what’s it like being gay, or an outcast or a dog in different cultures.
