In a remote Iranian village, a woman stands falsely accused of adultery - a moral crime for which the punishment is death by stoning. Voiceless women, armed with only their innocence and dignity, are no match for the overwhelming primal forces that overrun their town. Based on the book by Freidoune Sahebjam.

Second runner-up for the Cadillac People's Choice Award is Cyrus Nowrasteh's The Stoning of Soraya M.
