06/12/2016 How sad to see the violence inflicted on these women just because they don't want to be abused by their husbands or they want to move on from a relationship. See more 09/02/2014 Outstanding Documentary .. See more 11/25/2013 Well done short documentary about a horrifying and important subject. See more 03/16/2013 An unbelievable documentary on the lives of women who have survived acid attacks in Pakistan.

This details the process of surgery to restore one woman's face, and the prosecution of her attacker - her husband. Sad, infuriating, and ultimately uplifting.

I felt moved to action even though it's a pretty obscure cause. Worthy of its Oscar. See more 07/14/2012 It's absolutely unthinkable that these women are being put through this. We need more doctors and organizations out there helping them. See more Read all reviews
