Divorce Iranian Style (DVD)
?Focuses
on the actions of three extraordinary women who are trying to change their all
too ordinary lives as they take to task the old laws of the land. It is
revelatory and gripping stuff with Longinotto as an astute observer.? ?A
fascinating verite-style documentary that counters with compassion, humor, and
a keen nose for spotting empathetic characters, strong-willed women, and
dramatic moments, the traditional stereotypes of women in the Muslim world as
passive victims.? |
