    Under Islamic law, a man can divorce his wife at will, whereas a woman must have her husband's consent—or be able to prove impotence, insanity, or financial instability. Longinotto—a pre-eminent documentarist acclaimed for creating extraordinary human portraits and tackling controversial topics—collaborated with Islamic feminist scholar Mir-Hosseini on this hilarious, tragic and stirring fly-on-the-wall chronicle of six Iranian women’s struggle in Iran’s Family Law courts.
