Hêza (Strength)
The Revenge Story of a Yazidi Girl
2022·52m·★ 8.0
KU original
Hêza had never in her wildest dream thought that one day she would be commanding hundreds of men and women fighters in a battle against the worlds most dangerous jihadist terror organisation (ISIS) and defeat them. This documentary is about a Yazidi woman who had been enslaved during the attack of the Islamic State (ISIS) on Shengal (Sinjar) which started on 3 August 2014. It tells what she’d lived through in the hands of ISIS, how she managed to escape, and how she carried on with her life after her escape.
