| User ReviewAnokhi MDidn't know what this was about till Jeev rented it....it was touching and tells the horrible things that have happened to Afgan woman |
| User ReviewCharis HThis was an excellent portrayal of the horrific way women have been treated in Afghanistan! I cried to think that many of my students have come from a country where things like this were happening. The message at the end about not making generalizations was very powerful. |
| User ReviewTraci Pvery nice, but it is violently against islam |
| User ReviewKelsy EWow. Amazing movie. A simple, touching story. Honest. Incredibly moving. And it's a home-grown Canadian film - go Canada! |
| User ReviewLionel WI watched this movie completley by accident and gosh it was breathtacking. Very well played, very powerfull, a must! |
| User ReviewDe'Asia STV movie quality through and through with some incredibly wooden acting by Lewis. Interesting subject matter, though, and its heart was in the right place. |
| User ReviewPaul VI had never heard of this...and what a nice little surprise this was....real emotional ending...not usually a Lewis fan buts she's very good in this...good movie |

| User ReviewMadeline TThe basic premise of the story was good, although the acting wasn't great. The change in Juliette Lewis' character seemed too drastic. |
