Movie - 2006, 2h 15m • as Sahira's Aunt

A strikingly bold portrait of oppression and high tension in suburban America. It is the story of Sahira Abdel-Karim (Osuna), a young Egyptian-American woman in a California wedged between two distinct worlds, haunted by memory and bount by tradition. Beyond Honor is an emotionally resonant meditation on gender roles and the dynamics of power within a small community.
