I love the Sundance channel people.
I am currently watching Iranian Divorce Court, I kid you not. It's a film documenting how the Iranian divorce process works, and they film all these people suing for divorce.
It's amazing how much the situations are like what we get here. People using their kids to hurt one another, infidelity, alimony, it is all there. Of course the big differences are in what grounds women have for divorce, and what they can and can't do to keep their children- if they get remarried then the kids go with their first husband.
This is a fascinating movie. Highly recommend it if you get this channel.
