About this Event
Join us on March 21 for a screening of Inshallah A Boy, in which a widow pretends to be pregnant with a son to save her daughter and home from a relative exploiting Jordan's patriarchal inheritance laws.
Run time: 1 hr 53 minutes; Not Rated; Closed captioning available.
"Al Rasheed’s precision-tooled movie is a social-realist drama rendered as an escape thriller where the labyrinth that Nawal must navigate is the Jordanian social order itself, a massive bureaucratic, patriarchal maze designed to ensure that any woman trying to evade its clutches will batter herself to exhaustion sooner or later against one of its deviously placed dead ends." - Jessica Kiang, Variety
