« The producer of these films, Elizabeth Fernea, is a writer whose experience in the Near East goes back about 30 years. Consequently, the films represent a distillation of understanding difficult to match. Although the focus of these films is on women – and would, therefore, be useful for any social science course in women’s studies – the films are also fine for general anthropology, for political science courses about the contemporary Near East, and for the sociology of social change. »-Psychology of Women Quarterly
