Overview

Filiz's story, being born into a gaggle of siblings, is the story of many women. They sleep outdoors, tend to their family's lambs, and take care of each other while their mother protects them from their father. With great delicacy, Katharina Winkler portrays women's struggles to survive their tormentors—who are often their own fathers, husbands, and brothers—in the face of patriarchal violence centered on misinterpretations of the meaning of love, religion, and honor.
