In this
powerful film, six ex-Muslim women activists share their moving stories of
growing up in Muslim families and Muslim-majority countries and the violence,
loss and shunning they faced because of their apostasy.
The
women talk about everything from tearing their hijab on door handles as a
child, wearing a burkini on a beach in Italy, wanting to scream their atheism
in Mecca during Hajj, losing custody of a child after a husband’s accusations
of blasphemy, reporting a violent fundamentalist father, forging a male
guardian’s signature in order to flee their country and being shunned for
defending gay rights…
Despite
the risks, the women speak of hope, happiness and freedom from Islam and the
hijab.
