What do you know about side. Youre probably thinking and rich kids. A nightmare for women and an extreme interpretation of islam. Things people in the west take for granted are a lot. Mixing with opposite sex. Or talking about politics. But you might also have heart the things have opened up recently under the new crown prince women are now allowed to drive. After the 1st time men and women have been allowed to listen to Music Together in public. And i work as a fascist artists in london. But ive never felt totally at home. I grew up in Northern Ireland but i was born in saudi arabia to sudanese parents this is so right yet your street. Begging me to come back to saudi arabia and hope i might be convinced to move there. So. I decided to live with them for 2 weeks to see what my life would be like in saudi a lot more deserting the life. He tried to choke hold a straw resisting attempts or trying to saudi saudi or not having a great time in western media yeah we dont want to know would i be allowed to party thats the sad thing that i would. If i lived here or go on a date should hinder well its their own to do. That this journey is going to be much more challenging and i imagine are you uncomfortable or is it the rules going to be. Happy i still isnt going to get in trouble at all so dont bother this is crazy but i literally was just reading an article. Ok if you do if you dump bot. Im finally on my way to saudi arabia. Which is relieving news breaks i decided journalist who walked into the Saudi Embassy in turkey and never came out and. Thats an interesting title change be allowed to go if they could have said no. I dont wear a headscarf back home but my aunt told me to put it on for me down. The braces and that can happen really you know. Now i have to find out if i can move back to my birth country. You know now. Im entering saudi jess the director of the film. Is 2 women we hope to see things that a male crew might not be able to. Not to mention the inside of mans house. Oh oh oh nothings going to leave me. And. My cousin not just man meets us. And then with that. Comment because its such a. Blast we did it. The fight i mean how you put the 5 hours. Even my. Mother the fact that what youre hearing is. True. Or not its like everyones talking about the same you know whatever no not really. Im going to be living here with a laugh. My mother to and thats back. So i refer to them all as im new to the arabic for. This is citrus moments the youngest of my and. Former colleague. And this is the Middle Sister hes visiting from sudan. I feel really looks. The only man in the house is much better husband who doesnt want to be on camera. That he. Has worked as a University Professor here for 25 years or something you never heard of but it. I forgot with these women theyre all like my mother and i simply think its fine. To let me find something. I thought i would feel really unsafe being here so far i feel nothing but sifting. Through youre. Weak you. Never knew it. Was like that. Moon. Notion morning linda. I did and you should think that. I believe by and by that i. Am that he may say i ducked. And i have to say that even if that what has that little shouted the lot of you do love you why didnt you. Although the dress code seems to have listened i let my aunts trust me the way they like it was that they want that. We. Could see if they think it is ok if. Part of the deal for being allowed to film inside is our company but fixers and the government minder at all times. We need them downstairs. Im. Not one to be like oh you might someday come up with this new law if you love. To. Come to the moment. Which is a mix of the usual western brands but also special about shops. So block. What size is this. This is tried out. I dont need it though. So the prices prices that they. Mean to me that maybe 100 pounds. We were going to get but. No next. Time. As were Walking Around and noticed that most women are wearing film cops but like man said there are also lots of women wearing open a bias and no headscarf are told. So im going to leave this like thats ok. I left not a problem right. Are you ok listen. Are you uncomfortable or is it the rules. If. Shes not wearing even. Before we get a chance to try anywhere else all the shops close for prayer. Think were just going to go right. I dont really stop to pray in my normal life but i go along with it for man 7. But when we come right our fixer suddenly im very asking why jess and i arent wearing a bias in good. Things like going to. School i mean just the filming director or both dressed in dark loose florid clothing that my aunts helped us choose but apparently its not good enough i. Dont know yet i was afraid youd think if i. Didnt make it i also know that. I managed to find a pink abayas for 50 pounds. Because im. Happy im getting. Everyone when. Im a bit annoyed by the way the fixers handled the situation but i also get there with the case they might be a bit more a match. Do you realise all these women are turning around so you can get them jess oh all of them all of them i know that not everybody wants to be on t. V. But here i feel like theres more to it. I get talking to a girl to check out every single time we have become all the women and get really scared of the camera and i dont really understand what theyre. About to pick up because. We. Know a lot of you now have that South China Sea bass. Boat thats on the world wide web. So is a lot of it to do with fathers and husbands. You just dont know. And thats to. Do you agree with you dont because you dont mind i know i do. So if this. Ok thank you should question but i. Was its interesting she even said instruments find being on t. V. Is not. Safe at the internet as western t. V. Nowadays. Social media seems to be the place to breakthroughs. But it can have consequences. A woman from saudi arabia was arrested after snapchat video surfaced of her Walking Around in egypt in a mini skirt and her hair exposed. And insanity you could be punished for even sitting next to a member of the opposite sex at work and in gyptian a man has been arrested in saudi arabia after he posted a video of himself having breakfast with a coworker. Social media isnt so relevant for mt. Iran so many women cover themselves up completely i wonder if she ever feels pressured to do so. Thats number one you ever feel like a judge here for not wearing and the cops. Are really nationalities for me. Fine that. Is important. For me i dont wish to move on i think its a choice i can see well i know what i can say i think its a choice you know officer no i am a citizen so this is a choice for me its like a choice for me that i where the way. It is somewhat for me to wear on the lesser extreme i dont think its a must for me to even wear it. So its that your petition of what you want to be what someone says yeah you have to read by i dont buy dont wear one yeah but so that if i dont have to do anything i dont want to have white but i would not have to follow your religion right but i dont but i but i but then us and thats its a messy line. I mean. Because. You know i dont want to i dont want to. You want to make you feel like you have to Say Something very much like i can i guess my own personal opinion. On the board thing will be. All my life ive tried delicate line between how i want to behave my family expects of me. And being here is dragging up lots of my old battles. I mean from there it was like living for me to get ready and i was like in the car next to decide the car and the music was playing and then you just take shimmy to the i dont. Know what youre going to get in trouble if you dont and i just. Havent talked to anyone thats my age. All of that is talk to adults and men alike are 100 minders. You cannot mungo religious piece because of a recipe called western music theyre on instagram so they are in the open and are still getting away with it. But. This show that this is a. I decided to take up an invite from a friend of a friend have been speaking to on line to go to the launch party of a magazine that is 7 minutes away a book a new career i know lets just say that theyre looking a lot right well by the way when we come in ok ok im going to do is going to say ok ok im not going were here i know. But i dont know. Going. To have. Just. Put the book. Her. Destination magazine is a government indoor city guide which also promotes up and coming southeast figures. From the times right up. You. May. Be. Signing my friend to write i didnt know my car i know if. I think i. Might. Come in and hour and a half hour and up our hour like. This whole. Thing. Oh. Oh oh oh oh. Oh. I mean i dont. Want to. Know. I wake up feeling more at ease after seeing whats possible in saudi. But just when im starting to feel better about saudi theres news about the missing journalist. Cia director is heard audio recording of interrogation in the killing a Saudi Crown Prince battles to contain crisis another saying he didnt he died in a chokehold a stir resisting attempts to return from decidedly his body was then rolled into robin given to the local Corporate Church to dispose of so effectively whats happening is the crown prince is now saying they did do it that he wasnt aware of it and the people that didnt do it will pay for it heres a picture of. The son i guess of the deceased meeting their conference. They hit it so scared. To clear my head which in my case. To the wheel. If im seriously going to consider living here i need to see whether i could meet someone. In their lives since that. Point of ok no. I dont like any of. Them. Right off tomorrow. I think you know good form of the type you have a place and then when he really wants to take. You. To be they can they say but. I can. I could never be the one whos doing that. But when i raise the idea of going on a date tells me no way. I called my brother back in the u. K. To get his advice and listen to but the concept of me going and sitting at a table with another man effectively course ears eyes but just like the strangest thing to them like in their ideal world it was ideal world like the story most of the time fix you up we saw it like. Tricks it. Just keep going baby start next topic so now you see them right i must apologize to you want to live straight by the end of the day i say go for it because you can do it i wouldnt take any series of life their thoughts on this wherever the consequences on its id reversible was that i have no guilt. Guilt here theres nothing to be guilty i am letting you know yet im letting you know im letting people down. This time the only people down the only kidding ourselves here right ok guys i better go because ive been in the room with a locked door for a while that makes it look like im like. I mean we are in no way denying. Reports that you did this. And the whole lot of the your book out of it why you have to. Be shocked me about. Im just a month until ok. Eastham it was the outside world still folks in the case we decided to go to mecca. How missing but how to settle. You know marry them eat from the head and make pay to help us and then it means that. B. P. Has had a lot to offer them and if something happened to me again except in the innocence of having to be more happy to go home at night with this. Man helps me into the city from. This to purity need to be a free and to mecca. That had no past to fit my side and he has already said he you know the thing you know i met with me today and its not sitting just because hes been almost like hes. Like for the 1st time in a while i start to think more closely about my relationship with god. Our. Family said that she wanted us to do more together and now i suddenly feel guilty for doing it without her. And. It would be you. Could hear me. I ring you after i get past the mountains. Like. This. Just north of everest. Its here. You know living in the moment. It is think it should be doing both here. And it looks more. Like. Its lies a moment if youre going to sound just normal meaning it was. Kind. Of mean i think that you know that even when im out of my body. For the longest its. Muslims arent allowed to enter mecca so we stuck to that just turn back. To something incredibly moving about being here with thousands of other people. My history im not thinking about that kind of money to give to young is a business and the only thing im just said i know well that. I dont have a monkey and event. Which it could be you know like the demise or not yet you can see how she and me. Either get it will get. I get that you know i think the good in the going to o. E. And we love. It. Its. Just theres a lot about being muslim that i love and visiting mecca reminded me of that but the way south interprets the rules of islam sometimes feels wrong it scares me that as a woman i wouldnt be totally in control of my own life if i lived here. Im not sure id want to raise a daughter in a country where her male relatives can make her decisions for her. Just recently i heard about the case of a half a can of. A study teenager who fled to thailand to escape her family in saudi alleging abuse. And there are so many other stories like hers. But as i keep finding the Society Nothing is clear cut. Looking for a place to exercise i come across a mixed group of men and women whove been in public. I decided to join the next session but 1st i need to find something to run and. This is your gym because i used to work on a trainer. Women have only been able to run in public in the last year so im because most women still wouldnt feel comfortable running with. James. Has designed special sports about. This was our original color yeah it was. It comes in 2 different ones it comes and forge with a member of the ring and then theres the arch. 0 which is more suitable for the. Bike. And i tried it on again for sure. Yeah but. Thats the goal and. Right this is all i have yet yeah. Its just like wearing one if i can literally do whatever youre. Like me because it started making a connection with people like im working in your area and then we see each other from far away its like we both you know mr iowa created this this weird yet really Connection Community feeling between people i think thats a change missed now thats how these changing everyone feels like lets kind of get together and its pretty that these are like hubs of being like were both doing it will be moving forward a little bit but its not constant never want to see anything like a few months ago and now its gotten so much better yeah because there are a lot of a lot more girls behind the wheel right now but its like we still need a lot of work. Speaking to jane reminds me that ive already been here a week but i still havent driven a car. Its hard to believe the before june 2018 women would be arrested for attempting to drive. On its way out of the race. There to try to help with the surface of the wood and i go there from im just were just going to make it and me and ive been there. And i was in like parts of the water i wanted to just show up. And it was going to be a delicate matter but i tell my aunt that i want to drive a car but look sure that you we went for you right in front of serious towie because here i see youre worried about the. Car driving rather than being allowed. Im afraid that everything anything when copying it will take oh oh oh or how it is no. It is for the 1st time the rumors are flying out all right if you want so much right now. So its about keeping up appearances so if anything happens im creating a 5. I was wrong understood. On the field and called for the disabled if you can get i need to see this last installment right on my for 2 years or more everything but you know i get emotional always need. To cry then but im still right right. So you protect your own its not all come to meet for the 1st time going on all your life what i mean by that is would never be a good ok because if one day you want it is going to happen ok so i love everything. You believe from addictive. Sort of. What. Badminton over it. Doesnt. Get. By. You i decided to take my chances if im going to live here i need to be able to carry around a man. I may even be the 1st british woman to try consolidate. Our government minder is of the carbon to place me right and hes already decided where he wants me to try to push him off should. I go. Oh. Why was this not so its a rest officially and. While. Its this it is. Still. A little bit right its just something different. I havent told them that this is my 1st time driving with an instructor i only got my license 2 weeks before coming. Left left left left this therefore theres no as america as you know but stretched it out. Good to be kept. Im. Just. Caution its nice houses look at that its a house is a palace. But the people who live here work us the clothes people. Are businessmen in a high position they cover their needs to kill him in. The company. The fixer instructs me. To where he wants me to try. I spak make you turn. Thats a big statement into their yeah your style of course i think so hed use hearing you want is youve heard him. Talk away before you know i know you told me before why dont we dont actually do you turns in the u. K. Theyre a little bit happy that theyre there i cant really. And i need to understand the privilege that i have right now. Where 2 women in the front seat of a car which is the only be available today in the space. And they must remark i. Only stop for a minute we ask our fixer to get the s. P. From the other car so we can play some music. I mean just her alone with activists who campaigned for the right stripes. On the evening of september 26th i have sat at home in Riyadh Saudi Arabia eyeing her smartphone she was not the only one under a gag order that shes been i think government had made some more calls to other womens rights activists and the government effectively wants to take credit they dont want the activists to take credit for they feel like theyre like we as men get the t. V. Even though theyve been advocating for 3 years. The article goes on to say things are now in prison. Minutes later the me turned sour. Why are you outside you dont need to be outside it turns out one of our local crew overheard us talking about the imprisoned activists and immediately reported it to the government minder. The people in charge of the company are furious. We didnt like it this is crazy but i literally was just reading an article. Because were going to be fighting for the right to drive and i can drive because women are fighting for their children because were going to fall for the right strive now i can drive. It in the car so i can just get that. Shes business said stop im going to they speak to me completely. Shes like the snobs this is not that he said it was due to the screwed up truck. I dont use them. And why should i care about activists the only reason women can drive is because the kings allowed it. To strike. Us control is. To drive us back home and tell us not to film i said the house where they contact the government and react. Im not going to sit here. And wait. But what i wouldnt give to be at home right now. I think were going to get. Rid of my. Letter 1st. And see. If you. Hear. Kids securing. The rates from. The go go. Go for short. The stern. For. The fix is to stop replying to messages receive a text from our office in london. d your face it is worth.

Im disappointed because like i just guessed this week was like reduce so many find the missing things that dont doing this for me like. Its such a shame says reading female entrepreneurs disagreed and i was going running with a running client i mean i dont dislike this country and id like the people have had a nice time i mean its almost like you have to leave the country at the old kind of. Thing that they want to do and let you do it dont dont try is the west to china possibly i feel like im something that they dont want to they dont want us to shine a light on their own country. And next step of the skirt now its like a fog its just a shame more than saying its a shame yeah im really disappointed get. It lucky call or went wrong ok it is just. A fancy fine job you all and i think this will be a very big experience for both of you ok thats what us also ok for me i dont want to feel sorry after all there is nothing. Ok.

Im sad to have to leave my aunt so abruptly. I came here to see if i could live in the country i was born in. The supposedly new saudi arabia. I despite the horror story of the murder of the saudi journalist. I was willing to give it a chance and hopeful that it might restore my sense of identity. But it seems assad hasnt really changed enough. Im not wanted in this country. Just because i mentioned the name of a female activist in the effort to understand what right have heres a woman. I dont think saudi is a bad place but a lot would have to change before i could ever think about moving my life here. The 1st. Kick off.
