Banaz: A Love Story
Banaz Mahmod, a young Kurdish woman living in London, was murdered by her own family in a brutal act of violence. Her death was the result of a calculated conspiracy, orchestrated by her father and uncle, who believed she had brought dishonor upon them by seeking a divorce and pursuing a relationship of her own choosing. This documentary explores the harrowing events leading up to her death, the failure of the authorities to protect her despite her repeated pleas for help, and the relentless pursuit of justice by the detectives who eventually uncovered the truth.
