For such an important film, such an important topic (abuse and oppression of women) I was appalled at CT's recommendation to follow the action item suggested on the official "Stoning" website. Donating to the United Nations Population Funds totally misses the point - worse, it plays into the doublespeak of UNPF. The fund is used for "women's health", meaning taxpayer funded abortions worldwide. This truth is flatly denied by the UNPF, however, in fact, some of the funds go to Planned Parenthood International, the largest provider of abortions worldwide. Please, beloved CT, print a bold retraction of the recommendation. Please, Christian readers, tell everyone to take action steps after seeing this movie that truly give women a voice: invest in education, economic empowerment delivered with the gospel by Christians...perhaps thru Sisters In Service.

I will be seeing this movie for sure. Great movies seem to come when honest passionate people make them.
