En Addis Abeba, la abogada Meaza Ashenafi ha creado una red de ayuda a mujeres y niños pobres que necesiten la ayuda de un letrado. Se enfrenta a un hostigamiento constante por parte de la Policía y del Gobierno. Aun así, se atreve a defender a Hirut, una chica de 14 años a la que secuestraron y violaron cuando regresaba del colegio y que consiguió matar a sus raptores antes de escapar. A pesar de haber actuado en defensa propia, Hirut puede ser condenada a la pena de muerte. (FILMAFFINITY - Fecha estreno 30 abril 2015 España)

Three hours outside of Addis Ababa, a bright 14-year-old girl is on her way home from school when men on horses swoop in and kidnap her. The brave Hirut grabs a rifle and tries to escape, but ends up shooting her would-be husband. In her village, the practice of abduction into marriage is common and one of Ethiopia's oldest traditions. Meaza Ashenafi, an empowered and tenacious young lawyer, arrives from the city to represent Hirut and argue that she acted in self-defense. Meaza boldly embarks on a collision course between enforcing civil authority and abiding by customary law, risking the ongoing work of her women's legal-aid practice to save Hirut's life (from movieweb.com)
