I agree with the previous three comments regarding the quality of the composition and black and white portraits.  The film production is very good.  However, the theme of the movie offers no message of hope or deliverance for the women. Other than sadness for the women, the film offers no positive women’s voices. The narration is one of despair. Perhaps the film will strike a cord of guilt in the opressors—most likely not.

This film amazed me. How the music match with the whole story! I really feel that I am in that place and see whats happening around the place. Some portraits are really stunning. I think this filmmaker is not only a filmmaker he has a good eye to see. In a word..Great..

Excellent documentary film. I like the black and white theme. In the contemporary world it is more challenging to create such this work and stand by with it. Its feels me the whole story like a poetic way.

This is a strong documentary work. Its composition and b&w fills me a rhythm of that stone workers life.
