    What’s another very telling thing about the motivations behind her sentence is the undeniable fact that women get lighter sentences and yet she didn’t, she got the hardest.

      Ya but you aren’t allowed to break the law and leak classified government documents just because you are liberal and want to make conservatives look bad.

      You are right. But it is also not a bid deal to look them up. It's Farsi (spoken in Iran) Dari and Pashu (spoken in Afghanistan). They all belong to the Iranian language branch like Kurdish and Balochi. They belong to the Indo-European language family. That means they are closer to English or Hindi then Arabic.

    The filming from the empty room creates a tension that constantly increases, as the main character realizes that her life will change dramatically. And the close-up shots of the main character 's face, his eyes that betray anxiety and fear, corroborated with the changes in the looks of the two FBI agents, such as: "ah, we caught you with something", increase the oppression even more.
