| Summary: | Verzio FF Submission
Duration: 00:58:00
Narrated by a 15-year old girl, Salma, and based on the real life story of a young woman who survived an “honor killing,” the film documents multiple murders and attempted murders of young women in Juarish, a mixed Jewish-Arab town and a closed neighborhood in Ramle. Here young girls grow up in fear anticipating their turn to face the killers. This fear is sealed with a code of silence – no one talks about the murders, no one goes to court. But the status quo changes one day when the body of a murdered woman is found in a disused well in the forest. |
