Movies We Like - The Stoning of Soraya M.
This is one of those films that unfolds slowly, then almost dares you not to look away. The actual stoning sequence is almost unbearable. That this is based on a true story, and that it happened in our lifetime, is unthinkable.
“It's a powerful, shocking piece, and the denunciation of a system in which an accused woman has to prove her own innocence (while in the case of a man, his guilt has to be proven by others), is strong and clear and unforgettable.” - Peter Brunette - The Hollywood Reporter
