On a remote, isolated, unnamed Lebanese village inhabited by both Muslims and Christians. The village is surrounded by land mines and only reachable by a small bridge. As civil strife engulfed the country, the women in the village learn of this fact and try, by various means and to varying success, to keep their men in the dark, sabotaging the village radio, then destroying the village TV.

MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant
filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Keira Brennan The movie is made so realistic it has a lot of that WoW feeling at the right moments and never tooo over the top. the suspense is done so well and the emotion is felt. Very well put together with the music and all.
Phillida Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.
noneee-94065 I thought the movie was really funny, and has a very interesting concept that is facing Lebanon's small community. I really liked these women whether they were muslims or christians. They were truly funny and really have this Lebanese characteristic and sharing a culture. No matter what was the religion, they were together laughing, hanging out, cooking together, and really having fun. I felt that I really wanted to be with them and enjoy the laughs and the cooking. I mean they added weed to the food for these men! That was so funny; it got me so bad lol. That was a funny devilish female plan, and I loved it. But, The story was overall very confusing. They got these Ukrainian girls to dance in front of men, Naseem's death, then converting religions. I get that the message is to stop fighting and killing each other, but it wasn't well-done presented. I enjoyed the movie, but it was still not the best. One thing that was important is the pictures presentation. The picture and color felt like this is a horror movie. When it sad, it should be dark colors, but when its funny, it should be bright colors. But, the entire movie was dark faded picture although there was so many funny scenes.
Ersbel Oraph Yes, Hitchens said it, but I thought it is impossible to make a story out of this affirmation. I almost let out a scream when the movie ended. Evrika! Ecce Femina! Nadine Labaki did it!It is an epochal movie. And I can't seem to hold the excitement. Here is the perfect scene of religion: men doing nothing, not even reasoning, a village with two temples and no school, all sort of weapons and almost no trace of any other tool, a cemetery. But the most important trait of this movie is not the religious fable. The amazing script finally presents the woman otherwise. In a land of savage violence, the women are no longer the breeders and not much else. They are truly life givers, but not in the patriarchal sense getting raped, getting pregnant, enjoying the pleasures of seeing the offsprings die one by one for petty reasons. The women in this fable are no longer passive. Like in La Source des femmes, the women take initiative to help their own community for which they care. Here you have strong female characters, and not simply the Hollywood ambitious type like in Working Girl.Contact me with Questions, Comments or Suggestions ryitfork @ bitmail.ch
theurbanglow If ever there was a film about the futility of fundamentalism and wars of religion this is it. It captures the madness of conflicts around the world dictated by religion and based on prejudice and ignorance. I'm glad this film was made and urge everyone to watch it. It is funny, clever, moving and cheeky and illustrates quite clearly that we are all human beings, despite our colour or creed and we should all simply learn, finally to get along!!! It also captures the close knit relationships between numerous religions in the Arab world, relationships that have coexisted for millennia and the dangers of when those relationships are abused by fundamental propaganda through the likes of extremist groups. I guess the question is raised whether we will ever learn but hopefully this film could help us understand.
khvv This movie discusses religious tolerance in a very nice way, mainly a drama with some hits of comedy and romance this movie is a must watch for everyone,it shows the the struggle on both sides of religious intolerance. A great movie with an international message. I would recommend it for everyone to raise awareness about these issues and educate the people. Mrs. Nadine Labaki really did a good job on this one.The actors might be amateur and not very famous, but the acting was good, which only makes the movie better and gives it a warmer 'homey' feeling making it very easy to relate to.
