Aroview: A dashing feminist dramedy sprung from the male bias in the Middle East, about a village of women who take up a 'sex strike' after their husbands refuse to pull their weight. Dir. Mihaileanu (THE CONCERT) blends sweet and sour cultural observations with the feminine delights of his gorgeous female cast.

I find this review offensive! I don’t agree with this review. I agree with this review.
3 stars (Good Enough) Without wanting to decry the noble plot the screenplay is a bit too simplistic at times. However, the soundtrack is excellent as is the beautiful photography of the locations. ~Tubbs
