美國USA、剛果Congo｜2016｜HD｜Color｜76min｜Madeleine Gavin

​

女人們緩緩攤開自己的記憶：家被戰爭摧毀、士兵殘暴性侵、四處流離遷徙，自從內戰爆發，童年結束了，身體也殘破不堪。二十年來的暴力與掠奪，使剛果成為最不利於女性生存的恐怖之地，八百萬人民被屠殺，數以千萬計的婦女甚至女童遭到殘忍性侵虐待。性侵甚至是毀滅一個村莊、挑起戰爭的手段。本片引述大量訪談以及團體治療的過程，讓觀眾透過她們親口說故事，自然而然感受哀傷流淌，並營造對戰爭前無憂童年、失落土地的無限懷念。

This film follows the first class of women at a revolutionary leadership center in Congo, weaving their journey with an association called City of Joy. In the place where women who have suffered horrific rape and abuse can heal and become powerful voices of change for their country. This film witnesses Congolese women's fierce will to reclaim hope, even when so much of what was meaningful to them has been stripped away.
