In the important and inspiring documentary, Threads of Hope by Bill Knowles, the issues of sexism and unfair treatment of women workers in Nepal are tackled. We see women turn to home-based work to provide for themselves and their families, despite lack of education and government recognition.
I teared up a couple of times while watching this film. Learning how these women strive to survive, some without family or spousal support, was impactful. I empathize with their anxieties and frustrations, as well as their hope for the future. The end message, urging collective action for oppressed women, resonated deeply.
There were a few instances where it was hard to discern the focus, but overall, the film evoked a range of emotions and inspired action. I would give it 4.5 kívül 5 csillagok.
