Knots: A Forced Marriage Story Reviews
Eye for Film
Jennie Kermode
Knots will doubtless shock many viewers, but it's more than just an exposé.
Film Threat
Noah Schwartz
The film's plot is strong, powerfully weaving together these three unique stories of suffering, struggle, and hard-fought liberation.
Movie Nation
Roger Moore
The stories told are damning, deflating and compelling, the statistics alarming and the villains as obvious as your nearest "fundamentalist" this or "ultra-conservative" that.
Maven's Nest
Nora Lee Mandel
Puts Ultra-Orthodox women within the pressured context of all girls/women in the U.S. facing no choices, with no social or legal recourse within their communities/families.
AWFJ.org
Leslie Combemale
It is clearly a labor of love for Brewer, and she certainly expresses an urgency for change that seems to elude our politicians + there's value in hearing the highly personal stories.
AWFJ.org
Nell Minow
This is the story of the women, the horrors they experienced, the courage they found, the triumphs they achieved, and the help they are now giving to help others.
The Daily Beast
Nick Schager
Knots: A Forced Marriage Story provides a comprehensive cross-section of religious victimization.
AWFJ.org
Cate Marquis
Knots: A Forced Marriage Story is an eye-opening documentary that spotlights something that many of us think of as happening in other countries, not the US...
AWFJ.org
Loren King
These three women make for sobering, understanding educators about a prevalent practice that needs the full glare of public attention. It's Reiss who calls the forced marriages for what they are: gender violence.
AWFJ.org
Jennifer Merin
The well-crafted documentary is a highly effective call for essential change.
AWFJ.org
Betsy Bozdech
This isn't The Handmaid's Tale; it's daily life in the United States right now for thousands...and as Kate Brewer's Knots: A Forced Marriage Story makes abundantly clear, it needs to stop now.
AWFJ.org
Susan Wloszczyna
Brewer is doing a great service by revealing this source of emotional, mental and sexual abuse and explaining how this mostly legal patriarchal custom still goes on in this day and age.
AWFJ.org
Sherin Nicole
Brewer intersperses their stories with editorial styled photo collages...distorted proportions and muted colors to illustrate the staggering imbalance in power dynamics... This isn't a nightmare from another era, it is America today.
