The Red Tent (2014)

A biblical tale of the trials and tribulations of the 12 tribes of Israel as told from purely the women's point of view.

[10/10 · 6 October 2019]

While "The Red Tent" may not be completely historically accurate as depicted in the Bible as told by a strictly male dominated story tellers The Red Tent is the trial and tribulations of being a women in a dominated male world, told by the women who lived, suffered and survived through the vast injustices perpetrated against them. It particularly follows the life of Dinah, the only daughter of Jacob and the perceived betrayal of her family and beliefs by two of her brother's against her royal husband. Her ultimate excile from her Homeland to live in squander in Egypt while trying to protect the son that she's not allowed to raise. This story is one of hope, faith, pain endured, forgiveness and love. Powerful performances by the main actresses, R and actors lends believability, emotional termoil and finally acceptave that God's plans are unknown yet attainable. This is absolutely, totally worth your time, thoughts and attention. I highly recommend it.
