Review of Honour

Honour (2020)
6/10
Respectable subject, but questionable dramatisation
30 October 2021
This is a nice dramatised documentary of a criminal investigation that revealed huge defficiencies in police action, intergenerational conflict brought about by migration of hypertraditional families to Western countries, and the appalling conditions faced by many women.

However, the overacting is painful for the viewer, and it is the director's to be blamed for that. Too much "emotionalising" gets in the way of an otherwise well-constructed storyline.

A final title helps understand how the UK bullied the Iraq authorities to deliver their own citizens to foreign justice. A hint of slanted morals.
