On march 8th we celebrate the international Women’s Day, a tribute date to those women who speak out and also to the ones behind the scene, and together working hard to make the world a better place.
The Chapel for Europe, together with the support of the Brussels Catholic Church invites you to participate, this month of March, in a weekly programme of 5 events around the theme: WOMEN OF FAITH: REALITIES AND DREAMS.
The third event of this rich cycle is the Movie Night with the film “THE SWIMMERS” by Sally El Hosaini.
Based on a true story, the film follows the journey from war-torn Syria to the 2016 Rio Olympics.
Two young sisters embark on a harrowing journey as refugees, putting both their hearts and champion swimming skills to heroic use.
