The Hindu Woman

The Hindu Woman takes an interesting look at women within the Hindu Faith who are divorced; widowed; single and differently abled. It explores the unfair use of faith to propagate man-made rules that oppress divorcees, single women and widows. The four women's stories are intriguing as they tell their stories of struggle and the ultimately their Faith that pulled them through their darkest days.
