wow - a very disturbing, yet moving film. A movie that tells the sad life some females lead in make-centered societies. A movie that is both compelling and scary.
Idina Menzel was in this. She did really well, of course. We saw her in London.
Powerful. Shows how history breaks us forward from tradition.
This film was a beautiful visual experience that brought it`s audience into the reality of one of the terrible fates one can face for, the meer role of dice at birth, and being born female .
Excellent movie, well done and educational for me as I did not know this kind of thing went on. The acting was superb as well as the directing of this film.
The movie was great!!! It was sad how the widows were treated
Beautiful movie. Some very poignant parts. Teaches us about cultural and religious differences. Makes one more aware of the plight of women in other countries.
great movie, very interesting. little girl was amazing like to see it again.
A deeply revealing/moving film...about the `underdogs` of society...the have nots....the embarrassments....the bad luckers...the emotionally downtrodden...the weak.....Real humans put in inhumane circumstances by dictatorial, societal/in-the-name-`GOD` mores....with absolutely NO WAY OUT!!! I cried, I cried, I cried....for women, for elderly, for children, for innocent life, for my own, personal circumstances. GO SEE THIS MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Beautifulls, sads & romantics.
