Synopsis
Two days after giving birth, Azra feels pressured by her husband, her mother-in-law, her doctors, and the invisible but predominantly Muslim community to have her son circumcised immediately. Cornered, she finds herself reacting instinctively to protect her baby.
Editorial
In her assured directorial debut, Ece Dizdar transforms a commonplace ritual into a quietly devastating inquiry into bodily autonomy. Refusing easy judgments, she locates moral urgency in a mother’s instinct, revealing how unquestioned traditions leave their deepest marks on the most defenseless.
