فیلمی "سندرێلا" (2015) وەک فێنتەزی و رومانسی، نەتەوەییەکی نوێ و کۆمەڵایەتی دەدات کە پەیوەندییەکی نیشتمانی و کەلتوری بە ژنان و ئازادەیییان رێژە دەدات. ئەم کارە سەرچاوەی هەست و هیوایە بۆ خوێنەر و بینەرە کە دەتوانێت هەستێکی پوزەتیڤ و پەیامی گونجاو بەرز بکات. For Ella, courage is staying true to her

By substituting contractual romantic love with fate-bound commitment, magic with divine permission, and individual forgiveness with cosmic justice, the Kurdish version produces a Cinderella who is not a Disney princess waiting for a prince, but a Kurdish keça xwe (virtuous daughter) who endures ( tahammul dike ) until destiny rights wrongs.
