  • Film has the power to change the way we think about ourselves and our culture. Documentarian and TED Fellow Sharmeen Obaid-Chinoy uses it to fight violence against women, turning her camera on the tradition of honor killings in Pakistan. In a stirring talk, she shares how she took her Oscar-winning film on the road in a mobile cinema, visiting small towns and villages across Pakistan -- and shifting the dynamics between women, men and society, one screening at a time.

    12:01 "Children are changing the way they see the world, one village at a time, through cinema." Such an inspiring talk! This is not what I anticipated at all. I'm so greatful passionate leaders like her are exposing the terrible oppression of women through religion, especially in rural communities. Keep up the great work so the next generation might actually have a chance at true equality.

      @Aviri Char Titles are supposed to be indicative of the body of the work -- informative -- not just what somebody "feels" like calling it. This title is weak and unclear. It's not as bad as those used in obvious click-bait, but it's a poor title and TED, especially, is capable of better. The fact that it is not a good title indicates laziness and/or intent to mislead.

    Excellent! We underestimate the power of cinema ...it can truly change the World. Just imagine if we start making more movies which promotes love peace and brotherhood instead of hatred violence and intolerance ..it would make our World such a lovely place. Violence is a very contagious disease..movies like The Kashmir files has nothing meaningful to contribute to the society ..all it does is propagate more communal hatred and division by portraying one entire sect of the society as villians which is so not true. Singapore took a bold step by banning this movie and rightly so. High time we stop the hatred by continuously reminding people of what happened in past and start envisioning a beautiful future of love and peace ✌️.

    When my bipolar was at its peak..I seriously thought all the films in the world is about me...as I thought I am a goddess....it all started with movie solo.....now I know it is wrong...my life is not a fiction...the movie world is not about me...it is more of human imaginations
    My point is accepting our own illness is not a weakness..it is more about understanding more about myself

    99% of the violence in filmis perpetrated against Men. So when you complain of violence against women in films you’re just showing your gynocentrism

    I have noticed that film is loaded with actors, actresses and myths. I find most documentaries to be heavily biased at best, and downright misleading or outright lying at worst. Honor killings are tied heavily to honor societies. The family doesn't just decide willy nilly to kill a family member. Rather it is the society that places great social pressure on the family to address the cultural transgression. Such a woman places a great social burden on her family clan through her selfish actions. I obviously don't promote such actions, rather I try to understand why things are the way they are. These types of things only happen in societies that have clans and castes. I don't think life imprisonment would deter people from honor killings. The killer will sacrifice themselves to save their clan.
