Women of Hamas

Four Palestinian women, each with different backgrounds, discuss their lives as followers of Hamas, which came to power in  the 2006 Palestinian elections. Footage of a Hamas kindergarten makes it clear that the militancy doesn't just come from nowhere: martyrdom knows no sadness. Not even for a mother.
