Even when their instruments are confiscated and burnt after a public performance, the women still continue to play, in the intimacy of their own houses, for their children, or in the open fields when herding the sheep. The documentary does show us the stark differences between public and private life, but the women bravely overcome this gap by making clear that no man nor a government can ever take away their music from them.”
