Maria’s Grotto (2007)
Sobre o filme
Four portraits of women, whose lives were dictated by absurd moral codes, Maria’s Grotto is about the issue of honor killings in Palestine. One is wrongly accused of dishonoring her family and then murdered; the second dies after being forced by her brothers to swallow poison; the third survives repeated stabbings inflicted by her brother; the fourth is a Hip-hop singer who dares to speak out about honor killings, and faces death threats. Through these stories, the film exposes the magnitude of honor killings in Palestine. Honor killings are a facet of the Arab world that have become more prevalent in society.
