Inch'Allah Dimanche (Arabic: إن شاء الله الأحد, romanized: Inna Shāʼa Allāh al-Aḥad, English: Sunday God Willing) is a 2001 French/Algerian film written and directed by Yamina Benguigui.
As part of the French government's Family Reunification law passed by Prime Minister Jacques Chirac in 1974, Zouina is allowed to move to France from Algeria in order to join her husband, Ahmed.
Through her journey Zouina gains her own strength, revels in the community of women she finds home in and is comforted by the emerging feminist dialogue she receives through radio talk shows like Ménie Grégoire.
This is Beguigui's first feature-length fiction film, and is based on her family's experience moving to France, as well as the struggles for autonomy Algerian women continue to face.
Nicely rendered period design jolts the viewer with reminders that provincial France in the mid-'70s was still closer to WWII than to the present and that today's relatively harmonious multicultural society was hard won indeed."
