Violence against women in Afghanistan is still widespread. Women of all ages are enduring brutal physical and sexual abuse in their own homes. This film looks at the various issues around women's rights and domestic violence in Afghanistan. It includes interviews with Horia Mosadiq, Amnesty International Afghanistan Researcher and Gualay Habib an Afghan human rights defender. The film begins with a short interview with Sosan a woman who describes some of the domestic violence she has experienced.

  • Hold true, sisters; you can find an ally for every enemy you have. NEVER SUBMIT, NEVER LET THEM TELL YOU THEY'RE WORKING IN THEIR PRECIOUS GOD'S NAME WHILE THEY RAPE YOU; FIGHT BACK.

  • @lSaif It's not all Muslims. We know it's not all Muslims. However, this is a problem that needs to be addressed by the governments of these countries and there needs to be a cultural shift. The issue of human rights is borderless and not dependent on religion. Indeed, Christianity has been responsible for some of the worst violations of human rights in history. I am not defending Christianity, I am not a Christian. I am an Atheist. It doesn't matter where you are, you are still human.

  • Countries like this NEED to have an intelligent woman as their leader.

  • @TheChristianityWatch all muslim countries, bar one, are dictatorships. CHRISTIANITY = LOVE AND LIGHT. ISLAM = VENGENCE AND HATE.

  • @Patrissimo47 I disagree. For every enemy there are 10 allies. There are no human rights in Afghan, so why should we be so eager to enforce them. Send in trigger happy troops. 87% of the Afgan men can meet their Allah in the bowels of hell. Allah and God are NOT the same, GOD would never promote beating a woman when Jesus respected his mother so very much.

  • Send in more troops and apply the CONVENTION ON HUMAN RIGHTS to every situation. Women are the barers of our children. A man that beats a woman is a violater of GOD himself.

  • Every 60 seconds, a woman is raped in America.

  • That's only one reason why religion is the worst thing to happen to the world.

  • WHAT!?!?! Why are you guys on youtube? Get back in the kitchen where you belong.

  • @TheKourosh1990

    Afghanistan's constitution which was made by senior Muslim scholars doesn't discriminate, besides apostasy perhaps. Whats in the constitution for women is not enforced.

  • @TheKourosh1990

    Yeah common response. You have never read the Quran. You honestky think you can fool us? LOL many have tried what you did but they all FAILED.

    Are your eyes high? Whats the difference between a Muslim country and a Muslim State?

    Hmm, last time I checked Malaysia and Brunei were pretty good Muslim countries. Kosovo and Albania aren't bad. Almost every single Muslim country has a constitution thats totally fine, yet theres corrupt police and governments.
