In a harsh and repressive society a lone voice courageously dares to tell the world of an act of unimaginable cruelty. Cased on an incredible true story this is the powerful tale of a village's persecution of an innocent woman. Who will join forces with the plot against her, who will surrender to the mob and who will dare to stand up for what is right. Starring Academy Award nominee Shohreh Agdashloo in the heroic role of Zahra, an Iranian woman with a burning secret. When a journalist (Jim Caviezel) is stranded in her remote village, she summons the courage to reveal what the villagers will stop at nothing to keep hidden. (High Fliers Films)

Another sad and cruel story from Islam. Had I seen it in 2008, I would have probably given it a full rating, but after Caliphate set the bar in series Daniel in film I'm a little more discerning. The final stoning is powerful, and thankfully the film doesn't get downright boring. Story****, Action>No, Humor>No, Violence*, Entertainment***, Music***, Visuals***, Atmosphere****, Suspense***. 7/10.
