This is a really terrific movie; one of the best of the year... It has a cumulative force that stays with you. It certainly stays with me.

FilmWeek (KPCC - NPR Los Angeles)

This is tragic, illuminating, and very intimately told. It's very stylistically intriguing... It presents the story from the victim's perspective. It restores her voice, in a sense.

A film that feels exploitative, not enlightened.

Sherry Hormann's chilling drama revolves around a free-spirited young woman living with an ultra-conservative Turkish Muslim family in Berlin.

This movie is not a judgment against the Muslim religion but an unflinching critique of anyone who devalues women's lives or treats women as always inferior to men.
