In the short doc, Shirin Neshat: Voice of a Woman, internationally acclaimed and exiled Iranian American artist Shirin Neshat discusses the foremost theme of her work- women's bodies as a locus for political and religious exploitation. Beginning in the 1990's with her series The Women of Allah and carried through to her most recent exhibition The Fury, she continues to risk criticism and judgement as she furthers the issue of women's rights today, distinguishing between art and propaganda which is increasingly misunderstood in our current globally divisive environment. Shirin Neshat: Voice of a Woman is a timely call to action to women around the world to unify and fight for equality as women's rights are being violated and eliminated around the world.
