Siłaczka
THE Strongwoman
Her husband wants to practice polygamy. She prays, feeds the cattle and chops wood. Women do all the work, whilst the men sit around and nevertheless insist on the right to have more than one wife. A portrait of a fierce woman and an intelligent reflection on gender roles in Islam. WMH
