    Excellent!

    A very well directed piece of work, and a story for all who need inspiration. Hearing Alison Botha tell her version of events was chilling and sobering. This tale of survival is remarkable. The execution of the film was outstanding, and with its honest portrayal of events on the timeline (especially after the attack), it takes us into the beautiful direction of hope.

    So you don't believe in miracles?

    Alison's story shows the viewer the worst and best of human nature - and in no uncertain terms. Graphic, disturbing and emotional, Alison's incredible story is required viewing, but viewer discretion is definitely advised.

    Alison you warrior

    This is a tale of a warrior woman, who survived the devil himself. And she's a living proof that miracles do exist. It's gruesome to watch and your jaw will drop several times but her strength it's the most impressive part of all.

    Super powers is the ONLY possible explanation here

    Your senses will be tested to the limit while you watch this documentary. You will feel confused and ask yourself how is this possible about one thousand times. The only possible explanation is that this woman is indeed an exception to humanity and she has been blessed with super powers of strength and resilience. You are about witness a super woman in the flesh.

    Story of belief

    What a story of belief and hanging on even at your lowest point. Excellent film!

    • Quotes

      Alison Botha: I will never drive in a car without locking the doors. I will never again watch a film without marveling at every camera angle and the lighting and knowing how many people are in the room watching the person voice her thoughts. I will never again stop myself from crying when I feel the need. I will never again see a butterfly without taking it as a sign just for me.
