this film, which was originally intended to celebrate women' s beauty, unexpectedly transformed into an emotionally compelling and empowering piece .
gong li for me has been in more great films then anyone else and this one is as good as any. sure this type of film has been done loads of times before, but rarely if ever better. i also think this gong li performance is, along with' the story of qiu ju' and' to live', the best she' s ever done and cerements her reputation as one of the greatest actors about. well for me she is the greatest if the oscars actually looked at actors in foreign films then gong li' s house would be full of them. i really do loves this film it' s wonderfully directed and paced and also stays away from a hollywood (lets rap everything up with a nice explained happy ending) ending. this film also benefits from having a child actor who is actually good and the rest of the cast is good as well especially jing - ming shi and xiuqing yue. my only problem with the film is that the character da he (xiuqing yue) disappears half way into the film but that' s only a little complaint because i think this film is brilliant. 10 / 10 .

after the hearings, manny travels to the united states to confront one of the two men who he claims abused him. the film’s climax follows manny to los angeles, where he meets a convicted pedophile who was given a suspended sentence for abusing avb in sydney in the 1980s. it’s a powerful moment between victim and abuser that delivers an unexpected conclusion .
this documentary explores the various struggles that women experience and provides an intimate look into the lives of five amazingly resilient women. overcoming the effects of mental health problems, homelessness, sexual abuse, assault, and rape are the focus of this enlightening film. directors michael and davida horn created the film to demonstrate the power of making purposeful decisions and taking complete self - responsibility for one' s life. all of the women in the documentary are astonishingly free of resentment and self - pity. their inner strength and ability to overcome the adversities in their life provide inspiration to others who might be suffering from similar situations, to find the inner strength and break the cycle of violence against girls and women .

over two explosive weeks inside melbourne’s county court, viewers will witness, for the first time, those rabbis and officials accused of the cover - ups take the stand and be grilled. for the first time, it is also revealed that manny was not the only member of the family who was abused; manny’s father zephaniah waks reveals two other sons were abused by a yeshivah centre teacher, david kramer in the 1990’s. he had tried to have the abuse handled by community leaders but was subject to an ancient code of silence that forbids jews from speaking about the allegations involving other jews, to the police .
while conducting interviews, co - producer and co - director michael horn found himself deeply moved by the painful and touching stories these young women shared. michael, in partnership with his daughter davida - who also became a participant in the film - brought these amazing women together as an inspiration to others .

these courageous women teach, by example, that those who dare to believe in themselves can find the inner strength to triumph over abuse, neglect, rape, illness, abandonment, poverty and religious domination. the similarities in their stories, even though they did not know each other prior to filming, communicate to all those who have suffered so long in silence that they are not alone .
the only positive thing i can say about this movie is that it makes other low production films look good. truly appalling acting, woeful dialog, pissweak stunts, it made other
i can' t believe they made that
films such as frozen impact and octapus 2 look like oscar material. this is a hostage film where you couldn' t give a toss about what happens to the irritating captives, or the so - stupid - they - deserve - to - die terrorists. out of all the dreadful things in this film (too many to count), the thing that really summed up this movie for me was a supposedly ritzy party scene where the waiters in the ballroom were carrying trays bearing wine? champagne? you might ask, no... two glasses of water each. wow. lame .
