Description:
"The Other Side of the Burka" is a 2004 Iranian documentary directed by Mehrdad Oskouei. On the southern Iranian island of Qeshm, a region with deeply traditional and strict African-Arabic customs, women face immense pressure from patriarchal society. This suffering is often expressed through mental and physical ailments addressed solely by Zar ceremonies. For the first time, this film shares the poignant stories of these women, revealing their resilience while appearing before the camera. It offers an honest portrayal of their struggles, lifting the veil of the burka to reveal their true selves.
