電影製作人裘德·謝哈布揭曉了一部極具個人色彩的紀錄片，記錄了她的母親被驅逐出 al-Qubaysiat 組織後，其家人所承受的情感衝擊。

This secretive movement, an all-female Muslim order operating across Lebanon and Syria, had shaped three generations of women in Chehab's family.
這個神秘的運動——一個在黎巴嫩和敘利亞運作的全女性穆斯林團體——塑造了謝哈布家族的三代女性。

The documentary, titled Q, functions simultaneously as an investigative piece and a form of intergenerational therapy.
這部名為《Q》的紀錄片同時具備調查性作品與跨代療癒形式的功能。

For decades, Chehab's mother Hiba devoted herself to al-Qubaysiat, which demanded absolute submission to its leader, known as the Anisa.
數十年來，謝哈布的母親希芭全身心地投入於 al-Qubaysiat，該組織要求對其被稱為 Anisa 的領導者絕對服從。

Chehab's grandmother Doria had likewise been a committed follower, and Chehab herself was initiated into the group as a child.
謝哈布的祖母多莉亞同樣也曾是一位虔誠的追隨者，而謝哈布本人則在孩提時期就被引導入會。

Both older women reportedly experienced profound feelings of solidarity and liberation within this all-female religious community.
據報導，這兩位年長女性在這個全女性宗教群體中體會到了深刻的團結感與解放感。

When Hiba was expelled for unclear transgressions, her entire world unravelled, leaving the family to grapple with grief, confusion, and betrayal.
當 Hiba 因不明的違規行為被驅逐時，她的整個世界崩塌了，留下家人去努力應對悲傷、困惑與背叛。

Unlike other documentaries about controversial organisations, Chehab's film deliberately avoids sensationalising tactics of indoctrination.
與其他關於爭議性組織的紀錄片不同，Chehab 的電影刻意避開了對洗腦手段進行煽情化的處理。

Instead, information about the group emerges only in fragments, as revealed gradually by Hiba and Doria in intimate conversations.
相反地，關於該組織的資訊僅以片段形式呈現，正如希芭和多莉亞在親密對談中逐漸揭露的那樣。

This narrative approach shifts attention away from the unseen but powerful Anisa and toward the emotional maelstrom endured by Hiba's family.
這種敘事手法將注意力從隱形但強大的阿尼薩（Anisa）身上移開，轉向希芭一家所承受的情感風暴。
#11
Chehab had envisaged her camera as a potent tool for catharsis, yet her father's responses proved less scathing than she had anticipated.
謝哈布原先將她的攝影機設想為一種強而有力的情感宣洩工具，然而她父親的反應卻不如她預期的那樣尖刻。

It was as though he were following an imaginary script that had gone awry, complicating Chehab's original vision for the film.
他彷彿在遵循一份出了差錯的虛構劇本，這使得 Chehab 對這部電影的最初構想變得更加複雜。
#13
Crucially, Hiba does not conform to simplistic expectations of a victim, which lends the documentary its remarkable depth.
至關重要的是，希芭並不符合對受害者那種過於簡化的預期，這賦予了這部紀錄片非凡的深度。

Her wounds from banishment remain raw, yet she resists easy categorisation as either a passive sufferer or a defiant survivor.
她因放逐而留下的傷口依然鮮明，然而她拒絕被簡單歸類為被動的受難者或挑釁的倖存者。
#15
By refusing to impose a tidy narrative on such messy realities, Chehab has crafted a film that resonates as an honest exploration of freedom, belonging, and slow liberation.
藉由拒絕將整齊的敘事強加於如此混亂的現實，Chehab 打造了一部作為對自由、歸屬感和緩慢解放進行誠實探索而引起共鳴的電影。
