Dishonorable Killings

A hard-hitting investigative documentary on honor killings of women. Shot in cinema-verite style with unprecedented access in remote rural villages in South-East Turkey, the film features compelling testimonies of women survivors in hiding, as well as candid interviews with male killers. The narrative thread juxtaposes the weight of tradition and community pressure against the courage of women who take a stand and struggle to overcome ancient practices.
