This is one of the most disturbing movies I have ever seen. Its sickening to see how this woman's existence is secondary to concept of honor for her male family members. The female lead gives a good performance, the settings and cinematography are visually pleasing at times, but the underlying violation and total negation of the basic human right to life totally cancelled any appreciation of those things. I kept watching because I was certain there had to be some enlightenment or redemption coming. Instead, I was left slack-jawed with horror when one lead smiles at at televised comment made by one of the persecutors that after all Pakistan was founded for Islam...as if that could in anyway justify the tragedies
