Description

In this documentary, five Muslim women talk about their occupations, aspirations, and the rights and status of women in their countries.  They challenge the rules that dictate their lives and strive to rise above violence and oppression.  These self-portraits of hope, heroism, and pride challenge conventional Western stereotypes about women in the Islamic world.
