Susan and Russ take on “Mustang,” a film from Turkey that was nominated for this year’s Best Foreign Language Oscar. “Mustang” tells the tale of five sisters who are virtually imprisoned in a family member’s home to protect their virtue. They’re removed from school and are taught skills needed to be obedient wives to the local boys that the family will choose for them. It was written and directed by Deniz Gamze Ergüven and won César Awards for Best First Feature and Best Original Screenplay.
