Submission décrit quatre femmes incarnées par la même actrice voilée, vêtue d'un tchador transparent, son corps nu tatoué de versets du Coran. Ces personnages sont des musulmanes qui ont été maltraitées de différentes façons. Le film fait entendre les monologues de ces femmes, en soulignant trois versets du Coran appelant à de bons comportements au sein du couple, le rôle de l'homme et de la femme dans une relation pieuse, ainsi que des règles régissant le divorce et la réconciliation ; puis citant une certaine supériorité de l'homme par rapport à la femme, d'une façon très complexe, livrée à plusieurs interprétations, en les montrant inscrits sur le corps des femmes.
