Movie description

14 year old Aberash was abducted, beaten and raped. In Southern Ethiopia, abduction is accepted as a legitimate way of procuring a bride. Except that Aberash killed her abductor. Her case was taken up by Ethiopia's first group of women lawyers. She is the first girl to resist centuries of deeply-entrenched, male-dominated culture.
