The Virgin and Child

A feature film by Binevsa Berivan

Synopsis

Barely out of the ISIS hell, Avesta, a young Kurdish Yazidi woman, winds up in Brussels with a single thing on her mind: to wreak vengeance upon the man who enslaved her. Between a fierce struggle for justice that sees her revisit her darkest hours, and having to mother an unwelcome child, Avesta fights to be heard - whatever it takes.
