I really liked the video. I am glad you asked the question whether the burkha is just a lame target for something else which might be a much bigger issue.

Women and islam-
Interesting perspective on the Burka. certainly the power of women cannot always be defined by their dress. Curious thing that I would like to see is more probing of the men. Where they beliefs come from and their openess to change. I have seen many films that portray women in islam and they are indeed very powerful and really running things in the family and their husbands. Can’t say more than this right now.

Very interesting view into life in India. Loved the honesty and the different perspectives, and specially the women driver who seemed to be pretty happy about her job. Great work!!
