Atiq Rahimis's novel about the trials of a modern-day Muslim woman living in an unspecified Middle Eastern nation whose very existence is awash in conflict. A young wife with two small children is caring for her warrior husband who has been wounded and is comatose. His family has fled and left her behind to care for hubby. Only her aunt (who is a prostitute) gives her some aid. An hour and a half of treating women badly. I left the theater grateful to be an American. Well acted although hard to take at times. I give it a 7. Stars Golshifteh Farahani and Massi Mrowut.
