As she travels around Nepal, listening to stories of wartime rape survivors, and creating a unified voice for justice, she knows that she\u2019s poking a hornet\u2019s nest. Nepal\u2019s leaders want to bury the shameful truth of wartime rape. As the only public face of survivors, Devi has decided that she can no longer stay silent. But her TikTok dancer teenage daughter, Rosy, \u00a0just wants her to be a mum. In 1997, seventeen-year-old Devi, was arrested, accused of being a rebel, tortured, and raped in custody. A civil war had just begun. Rebel leaders revealed her as a rape \u2018victim\u2019. Tagged with this shameful taboo, Devi battled depression, social ostracism, joined the rebel frontlines, and rose through the ranks, even serving as a member of the parliament when the war ended. Shot as an immersive verit\u00e9, the film travels with Devi, as she consolidates the voices of survivors. As Devi confronts her former lawyer and seeks consolation from her counsellor, the film dives into deeply intimate and vulnerable moments. Through her diary, supported by archives, Devi reconstructs history erased to rewrite the destiny of thousands of women in Nepal.
