Kim Longinotto travels with her camera to Kenya to confront the barbarian procedure of female genital mutilation, which is still practiced today despite being illegal. She gives a voice to the victims and activists fighting for systemic change, exposes the superstitions and traditions behind these drastic procedures and offers hope for a change not only in the law but also in the collective mindset. WARNING! Drastic scenes and vulgar language.
