Too many fans seem to be blown away

Excellent but underrated film

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

2/18/18. I admire Linor Abargil for having the inner strength and determination to make something positive out of being raped. She went on to become a lawyer and then brought the rapist to justice and went on to raise awareness of the importance for raped women to speak up. Not too many women have the wherewithal to do something like this (well, maybe Gloria Allred pioneered this approach, and Abargil just expanded it onto a global scale). Better editing would have made the movie more cohesive. Nevertheless, the stories of raped women were so sad to hear.

This is a powerful and moving documentary that tackles an important problem in our world. I did not know about Ms Abargil and her incredible mission to help women around the world speak out and find their voice about the horrible epidemic of rape. She is a strong, smart, compassionate woman who has not allowed rape to silence or crush her spirit and who is trying to empower other victims. Her story and the stories others share throughout this film are stomach turning but enlightening. I was not aware of many of the legal issues and problems with bringing rapists to justice that are highlighted here. I think these things are important to know and I hope more viewers will see this now that it is available on Netflix. I am very impressed by her work and this movie, I recommend it to everyone.

When I watched 'I am Brave' it was just new on netflix and I was doing some studying and thought i'll just watch this. Bad Idea. I was glued to my television screen as though it is sad in parts Linor's strength makes the documentary enjoyable. It is about Linor Abargil, a woman who was crowned Miss World back in 1998...only weeks after she was raped. However she got through that Miss world is a miracle to me - who has experienced abuse as a child - it just shows her strength and that she was never going to be a victim. In many ways it has given me strength for my personal journey now, just being able to see how this beautiful woman managed and helped women all over the world. Plus responding to emails etc. It makes you realise that rape and talking about it is still such a taboo - all subjects of that variety are. I am a survivor of child sexual abuse and no-one would ever be happy to bring that up in a conversation. Not details, but just the topic in general. I do just to get it out there make people more aware. There are parts that can make you angry and upset for Linor and other Rape victims but your will need to watch the documentary to see that. How Cecelia Peck has made it so it is not just one big depressing documentary is amazing. She has managed to bring out Linors strength of character in every action she takes. I had honestly never heard of or taken much notice of who producers, writes or has a huge influence in all those important things until now, but I think she did an amazing job in every way. Thank you for sharing this story with us. And thank you Linor for sharing your story through Cecilia, and making me realise at a time I needed it to grab that strength I know I had and use and move on. So, a big thank you, many people will benefit greatly from your sharing.

I just saw this documentary and it was touching. You realize how rape is being a taboo all over the world.Because of Linor showing herself and her feelings in a very honest way you also see how much effect rape has on people.The flow of the documentary was alright. In the beginning I was more captivated by it, after Linor took a break from shooting, the documentary became more distant. All in all I love how this documentary makes rape a more open topic. For girls that have been assaulted I think this documentary will give them more strength to be open about it and to keep their heads up.
