Margi,
I've discussed this documentary (about the execution of an adulterous
Saudi princess) with Arabists in the past. Its release was very
successfully squelched by the Saudi royal family in cahoots with a
major oil company who also happens to be a major contributor to
public television. I doubt it will ever see the light of day
legitimately as long as Americans run on fossil fuels. Get my drift?
