Women Talking

by Miriam Toews

In the hushed loft of a barn, eight courageous Mennonite women convene to confront a harrowing reality - their community besieged by a series of violations perpetrated by men among them. Faced with the monstrous truth that their daughters, and they themselves, were drugged and attacked by a group from within, they grapple with an agonizing dilemma: to remain within the only world they've known or to make a leap into the unknown. Framed as the transcribed minutes of their secret meeting, the women's voices resonate with a fusion of sorrow, wit, and resilience. As they debate their future over two days, 'Women Talking' offers a profound meditation on faith, autonomy, and the enduring quest for justice.
