Synopsis:
The film explores the emergence of a rural Muslim women movement in the state of Tamil Nadu, India. The essence of their staggering struggle engaging with the question of gender violence, linking with the issues of poverty, survival, and women’s rights thus locating Muslim women’s concerns within a larger civic and political discourse. The film delves in to the prophecy of Ms Sharifa Khanam and thousands of other village women, who believe in freedom, justice humanity and democratic principles. And they now want to control their own affairs, hence constructing the world’s first women’s mosque and also formed the first all-female Jamaat (assembly) ever to counter against the gender biases and blatant discrimination in the name of religious and patriarchal social order.
