Crushed Wings

In this fantastic portrayal, Bhusal aptly depicts the complexities of one of the most poignant global issues pertaining to women's rights: FGM, which is still widely embraced and practiced across cultures and in several countries.

It is impossible not to note the immense bravery of the protagonist, leading a life laden with incredible pain and surviving through adversities. Her story is woven into a beautiful and empowering tale of female friendship and solidarity as the antidote to the violence of the patriarchy.

Honesty and vulnerability are the focal point of the movie, opening up a much needed conversation and providing necessary information to understand the intricacies of the topic at hand.

The only fault of the poor Ria is that she grew up and lived her childhood in a society that adopts wrong beliefs with no relationship with the religion that's based on mercy and softness and prohibits and bans everything that could harm a person.

As I live in a conservative society and may adopts some false beliefs, even if it will lead to harmful, i found this film unveiled a deep and a classic phenomenon on our arabic society such as the female genital mutilation and forced marriage.

It's a great film that I advise the arab society to which I belong to watch it, as it addresses a social dilemma that must one day end.

As a woman living in the Philippines, a conservative country, and religion as the basis of morality, I feel this movie. Although some cultural practices or traditions may differ, I can still relate to the stigma when it comes to female sexuality. How a woman's purity and worth are based on their genitalia, and women are nothing more but the bearer of the children and servant for the husband.

The scenes are depicted strongly and very moving! It can be an eye-opener for children's rights, women empowerment, and sexual violence. I love how they showcase the scenes realistically as possible. It can strike a conversation. I believe that these things happen and need to talk about more often. When it comes to consent in terms of FGM, it gives in-depth detail about the said practice. It can affect a person and can cause trauma. A traumatic experience can last a lifetime.

Ria's narratives are heartfelt. Her dialogue is relatable and easy to understand that's why you can empathize with her. Her symbolisms and metaphors are interesting that makes her dialogue more catching. As she walks through life alone, you can feel her despair and longing for answers.

All in all, I can say that this can be used to open taboo and stigma-related topics.

This movie is a masterpiece, it is a great intense emotional movie. The direction was great, the actor acted really well. This movie will literally make you think about the patriarchal society and their norm's.
