The film also sheds light on the cultural, social, and societal factors that contribute to the continuation of FGM. It conveys a message of hope, determination, and commitment to change.
Sara, who is 28 years old in the film and lives in Zurich, embarks on a journey back to her home village. Her goal is to confront the woman who caused her unforgettable suffering through the circumcision and to find inner peace.
The screening is followed by a discussion on ways to combat the practice of female genital mutilation (FGM), particularly within and with the support of the Foundation.
