Huda's Salon

As I watched the movie, I kept thinking about power and powerlessness. The strength of the characters was palpable while the situations they found themselves seemed impossible. The acting was well done and never felt exaggerated. The bonds formed were believable and heartbreaking. I watched the movie with a group interested in learning more about the Palestinian experience and discussed the ways in which women are especially vulnerable in this context. It is an important watch and a story that is not commonly told. Again and again I am struck by how powerful and determined Palestinian women are.

The movie is about women being in continuous fear.. that's it the society and its stupid rules that kill women every day.

We have all the right in our land and it always will be called palestine, so if we want to get rid of the occupation, we have to respect our women cuz if you do not, the occupier will continue to use this matter to serve his advantage.

This is completely misleading and terrible This is the worst movie I've seen in a long time Terrible acting and no need for nudity to display the life in the jewish sector.

At first the movie seems like a classic tale of women in a town, gossiping and hanging out. Very quickly this movie takes its dark turn and has us all wondering: "what is the truth". The main character is caught between a rock and hard place, and with seemingly no way out takes us along on a journey through the day after the world ended. This movie plainly is a haunting tale of collateral damage.

Our protagonist Reem is powerful, she is a representation of a strong Palestinian mother, who is striped of her options, and her ability to provide safety for her family. There are some amazing murals and shots throughout the film that aid this idea of her being genuine and powerful. As the movie goes on Reem does EVERYTHING she can for the sake of her daughter without even a thought for herself.

While watching this movie we all must ask: "can liars ever believe someone else can be telling the truth"? The truth is such a provocative and fragile thing.

Good Actors and Writers and Story, I don't know if it reality story.

If the story tells the reality, it is considered as raising awareness and caution.
