Very moving story that grapples with a mother's heartbreaking decision and its consequences to separate from her daughter in an attempt to keep her safe. It is a story of resistance, hope and resilience against a backdrop of devastation and utter brutality. A very raw and real testament to the strength of a mother's love and what she will endure for her daughter's safety.
