Me and the Mosque

Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world. In North America, a large number of converts are women. Many are drawn to the religion because of its emphasis on social justice and spiritual equality between the sexes.

Exploring all sides of the issue, the film examines the space – both physical and social – granted to women in mosques across the country.
