The demonstration that the husband «has nothing to do with it»
The video is meant to be a hidden camera, but it's too obvious that it isn't. Despite the almost certain staging, When she confesses to her husband her decision to remove her veil, he is deeply affected and confused: He tells her that he is afraid.

With a brave face, she communicates the decision to him: «I will take off the hijab.«His reaction is to put on a face of astonishment and sadness. And he says, «You don't have to take it off; you know how much effort you make to be modest and to follow your religion.«
The husband tries to convince her by appealing to religion and modesty: “You don't have to take it off; you know how much effort you make to be modest and to follow your religion.”. He also resorts to emotional blackmail by insisting that the veil is “very beautiful”, that he likes it and that she has to remember the “fight” she went through to get it.. He adds that «eI think that for you, the hijab is very beautiful., I like it«.
She insists on playing the empowered woman and declares to him that «It's not what you like, it's what I like.«He also raises the stakes and tells him that «The hijab is more for God, and you know it's for God; it's not for you or for me, it's for God and to please God. And thank God you're doing very well and you must carry on.«.
The husband, increasingly sad and on the verge of tears, seems defeated. It is then that she reveals it was all a joke: she shows him the hidden camera and tells him it was an experiment. The video ends by showing the tension and emotional shock that the issue of the veil can generate within a couple..
The pressure within the couple over the veil
This video exposes the extent to which the headscarf it can be experienced not only as a personal choice, but also as a source of pressure within the couple and the family.

The video also shows the contrast in roles: on the one hand, the husband appealing to religion and to what he considers “right”; on the other, the woman insisting that it is a personal decision.
The video shows a scene laden with tension and dramatisation, where it becomes apparent. the psychological and emotional pressure that can surround a Muslim woman's decision to remove her veil, even within the most intimate sphere of the couple.
