Hooligan Sparrow (2016)
inconceivable bravery confronting government-sponsored oppression and abuse

Believe every good thing you read about this movie. I saw it at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival. You must have a little courage yourself just to watch it. It will both haunt and inspire you. The protagonist, Sparrow, is brash and creative in exposing injustices done to women and sexual abuse of young girls. The sacrifice of these girls to curry favor with government officials is nauseating, but unfortunately true and apparently widespread. The story is not only about Sparrow and her fight for human rights, but also about the film maker, who was herself in danger. The most compelling aspect of the story is that it is now, it is current, it is all still going on. You can help.
