Additional Information / Shotlist SUBS

I really fought
to get away from them,

but I wasn't strong enough
against six or eight people.

I spent two days in hospital.

Yes, you can regain
your strength,

but you cannot forget
what happened.

It eats away at your heart.

But if you call yourself a ‘leader’,
you must be strong.

I'm a woman who always
gets up again.

Who remains standing.

This gave me strength
to create the association,

connecting with other women
in the same situation,

to become an association.

That is how ANAF
was created.

ANAF says that we,
sexual violence survivors,

have to fight against
stigma and discrimination.

I hear about cases
more traumatising than mine.

This motivates me

to send those responsible
to the courts.
