The point of view of Muslim fe-
males is virtually absent from
the current debate on the rela-
tion between the West and the
Muslim world. Sumaya (blog-
ger, first Muslim city councilor
in Milan), Takoua (cartoonist
from Rome) and Batul (psychia-
trist from Trento) are 3 eman-
cipated, ambitious and opinio-
nated Muslim women living
in Italy. Through sequences of
their everyday life and inter-
views, they provide an unusual
portray of young Muslim fema-
les in today’s Europe and cover
most of the issues inflaming the
debate.

ROCK’N’ROLL HIJAB – WOMEN BEYOND THE VEIL
Priests charged with corruption,
donations diverted to pay for
sex, money-laundering at the Va-
tican bank. The foundations of
the Holy See have been rocked
by one financial scandal after
the other and Pope Francis faces
an uphill struggle in his attempt
to clean house. British historian
John Dickie takes us into the he-
art of the Catholic Church’s fi-
nances and examines why, in the
words of Matthew, “You cannot
serve both God and Money”.
