Focuses on 21-year-old Isioma Daniel, who was enjoying her first job as a journalist when a single sentence spun her life and her country into chaos. Nigeria was hosting the Miss World pageant and Daniel was assigned to cover it. But a few words in one article considered heresy by Nigeria's mullahs sparked riots that turned Muslims against Christians in bloody rampages that killed hundreds of people and destroyed dozens of villages. Before the dust settled, the pageant had been cancelled, the beauty queens had fled, and Daniel had escaped into exile with a "fatwa" issued against her life. [This documentary] also features Salman Rushdie, Nigerian-Canadian writer Ken Wiwa, Judy Bachrach of Vanity Fair, and the former Miss Canada, Lynsey Bennett." -- Publisher's Website. 650 0 $a Fatwas $z Nigeria. 650 0 $a Beauty contests $z Nigeria. 650 0 $a Islam $x Christianity. $x Christianity. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85068406 650 0 $a Christianity and other religions $x Islam. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh85025266 650 0 $a Riots $z Nigeria $x History\y20th century. 700 1 $a Off, Carol. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n2006089386 700 1 $a Shprintsen, Alex. 700 1 $a Daniel, Isioma. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2008121900 710 2 $a Canadian Broadcasting Corporation. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n80085267 710 2 $a Filmakers Library, inc. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n50029346 941 $a 1 945 $a vhs 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180117020534.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=9F239F3CFB5411E7891C5F6197128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
