Women in Shroud is a documentary about the violent injustice in the Iranian legal system, particularly towards women. Through verité footage and interviews with women who were accused (often without adequate proof) of adultery and sentenced to the death penalty, and interviews with several dedicated women's rights activists and a volunteer lawyer who have helped to appeal and to overturn these women's death sentences, the film exposes the arbitrary and highly subjective nature of Iranian judicial justice, and the discriminatory cultural and moral double-standards applied by the judges towards sentencing women they believed to be guilty of adulterous behaviour.
Ive watched "The stoning of Soraya M" several times, after that Ive got a little bit more interested in this issue.
I truly wish that someone could upload this documentary, I think it would be enlightning, we need to know more about it. And also how we can stop this barbaric punishment, wherever it takes place.
Not even criminals deserves this kind of punishment. No ANIMAL should have to go trough this terrible suffering.
