Title from title frames
An alleged rape victim's odyssey through a broken justice system. In Pakistan, women and girls who allege rape are often more strongly condemned than their alleged rapists. Deemed impure and shameful, some are even killed by their own families. For this unforgettable documentary, an earlier version of which premiered at Sundance, filmmakers Habiba Nosheen and Hilke Schellmann spent years tracing alleged rape victim Kainat Soomro's odyssey through Pakistan's flawed justice system--as well as her alleged rapists' quest to clear their names. Frontline presents this powerful, intimate documentary that Variety describes as "extraordinary"
