DIVORCE IRANIAN STYLE
A film by Kim Longinotto and Ziba Mir-Hosseini
Hilarious, tragic, stirring, this fly-on-the-wall look at several weeks in an Iranian divorce court provides a unique window into the intimate circumstances of Iranian womens lives. Following Jamileh, whose husband beats her; Ziba, a 16 year old trying to divorce her 38 year old husband; and Maryam, who is desperately fighting to gain custody of her daughters, this deadpan chronicle showcases the strength, ingenuity, and guile with which they confront biased laws, a Kafakaesque administrative system, and their husbands and families rage to gain divorces.

He did not solve anything and may have even endangered this woman's life.

He is the provider and she in return is the procreating slave.

No disrespect intended but this is so hard to comprehend.

After 30 yrs of marriage, the judge recommends for her to "make herself pretty for him?" as if she is only an object to enhance the ego of the man. She is a possesion and not a life partner. "No one has the right to be worshiped except ALLAH! the creator and the Rabb of the worlds"

It is so sad to see descendents of Ancient Persians end up in this extreme conservatism. Persians were open, innovative and civilised, inspiring East Asia with its gorgeous music and dance, art and religion. Hope one day, Iranians can stand up on its own feet following Persian Heritage, not soly Arab or Islamic. I would like to see in my life the renaissance of Persian Culture~!

[ZingMingWingBing]

الشيعي كائن? مسلوب ألاراده مهزوز العقيده , يستغيث بالمخلوق ويترك الخالق ويذهب الى الحسينيه يترك المسجد ويجمع الخمس

ويدفعه للمعمم يقضي عمره لطم ونياحه وقبور, يحفظ قليل من الايات لكنه يحفظ 1000 لطميه لايستعمل عقله مطلقا,عنده كلام? المعمم فوق كلام الله , يهوى اللعن في الصحابه , لايجادل في الدين مع اهل السنه , يسمع الى الرادود ويعرض عن القران,

يعشق الاساطير والخرافات أحزانه أبديه لا تنسى , لايذكر الله الا قليلا لكنه يذكر الاموات أكثر, عنده شعور بالمظلوميه الدائمه , أدعو للكائن المغف

[devoneh]
