    The Patience Stone

    ★★★½

    Im afghan. A woman. And a muslim.
    I have conflicting thoughts on this movie:
    the story in itself is a worthy story, its saddening and it breaks my heart to know that this story has been, is and will continue to be someones future over there. But, and its a small but, i feel like this narrative and potrayel of muslim women in Afghanistan has a problematic tone to it.
    I cant help but feel like other stories of women…

    I watched this in high school thanks to my super cool teacher. Its an important movie that still highly relevant unfortunately.
    I recommend everyone to watch it; even though your not muslim, egyptian or know arabic.
    Find a version with english subtitles and watch how these women seek justice and band togheter against a faulty system.

    This, this right here made me cry and appreciate everything i have in life right now.
    Go watch it if you've ever wanted to know what a Oscar winning "best supporting actress" performance looks like.

    Feels like a documentary. Its also tackles issues like consent, age gap, drugs, hiv and alcohol abuse. Its not for everyone; but its worth a watch. Even if your gonna hate the move afterwards.
