The story here recycles the idea that modesty equals lack of freedom. I understand it's not everyone's cup of tea but this story just presents it as a problem with no development or resolution. It's simply a biased political short. Regardless of what message the directors were trying to convey, this short lacks any form of closure which makes me question what the point of the short was in the first place. Other than just worsening the Western stereotype against Muslim girls and women...

Deals with a complicated issue in a meaningful way. At times, it felt rushed. It could use like 5 more minutes. Reminded me of my childhood. It made me cry so bad by the end.

The short is very subtle and overall does what it needs to do very efficiently. Wish it was longer though. The performances were strong enough. Overall I enjoyed the short a lot.

This story was beautifully told, filmed and acted. Please consider making it into a longer piece. I am cheering for both Samah and her mother in the meantime.
