Her name is Dinah. From the Bible her life is only hinted at in the Book of Genesis during a short and violent detour within the more familiar chapters about her father, Jacob, and his dozen sons. Told through the eloquent voice of Dinah, this mini series reveals the traditions and turmoil of ancient womanhood. Dinah's narrative begins with the story of her mothers: Leah, Rachel, Zilpah, and Bilhah, the four wives of Jacob. They love Dinah and give her gifts that are to sustain her by a hard working youth, a calling to midwifery, and also a house in a foreign land. Dinah informs us of the red tent, the place where women were sequestered during their cycles of birthing, menses, and illness' planet. Her initiations to her tribe's sexual and religious methods. Of all Jacob's courtship along with his four wives. Of the mystery and miracle of caravans, farmers, shepherds, as well as even slaves. Of death and love within the city of Shechem. Of her half brother Joseph's rise in Egypt, and her marriage to Shechem also it consequences.
