Freedom Fields by Naziha Arebi is the first feature-length documentary made by a Libyan filmmaker (and British and back in her native country). Filmed over the course of five years, Freedom Fields follows three women and their football team in post-revolutionary Libya, as the country descends into civil war and the utopian hopes of the Arab Spring begin to fade. Through the eyes of these accidental activists, we see the reality of a country in transition, where the personal stories of love and aspirations collide with history. The SDI Productions and HuNa Productions film has partnered with Libya, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, the United States, Qatar, Lebanon and Canada.

At Toronto, Wide House will also focus on four additional documentaries in its line-up. The first being the British title Prophecy by Charlie Paul (a Mackenzie Studio production), which delves deep into the creative process behind the monumental eponymous painting by Peter Howson.
