Sari stories, is a documental that talks about life for women in India. Surprisely it was film and edit by the woman who live there. Their goal with this video, is to make us contious about the how woman live in India, and all the conditions thay have to live with amonf their lifes. The most interesting part of the video is when they talked about child marriage. It is illegal to married girls before they are 18 and boy before 21, saddly this law is not followed. In the video there is a declaration of a girl who got married 12 days ago, she was almost 13 years old. Many rights of the universal declaration of human rights are violated in this video, and it is really warning to realised that the goverment in India does not punish parents who allow the marriage between kids nor any other violation to the declaration. The articles violeted in the stories are, amonf others:
- Article 8.- Which is the one that prohibit the marrige of kids.
- Artcile 16.- Which says that marrige should be in the agreement of the parts involved.
- Article 18.- Whic is the right to freedom.
- Article 22.- Dignity and free development.
I believe that this kind of projects are very useful, because they make us realease so many thing of other cultures. Hopefully this project will go on, for those woman to grow as human beings and will make a huge chance in their lifes.
