When a journalist is stranded in her remote village, Zahra takes a bold chance to reveal what the villagers will stop at nothing to keep hidden. Thus begins the remarkable story of what happened to Soraya, a kind-spirited woman whose bad marriage leads her cruel, divorce-seeking husband to trump up false charges of infidelity, which carry an unimaginable penalty.

COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Serious and moving submitted by cathiek on July 12, 2011, 10:09am Moving and a must-see to learn about women's rights (and the lack of) in another country. Highly recommend but prepare yourself for heartbreaking scenes. Wonderful actors, also.
