A powerful personal account of the experiences of a young Bosnian woman caught up in the turmoil of the war. Very difficult viewing at times and not for those who find issues around rape crimes and it's consequences difficult to watch. The acting is phenomenal by the protagonist. The strangest part of the whole film was the way the people silently accepted their fate... And there seemed such a calmness to the madness of it all. This forces the audience to take on the full force of the emotions of the film. It is imperative that we have a deep understanding and awareness of the continual violence and humiliation of woman around the world. This is an important film and very bravely revealed there is so much more we need to do to stop this happening again and again...
Hard hitting and very moving, the film brings home the suffering of ordinary people caught up in power struggles
