Nadia Murad, featured in Alexandria Bombach’s 2018 Sundance Film Festival Directing Award winning documentary On Her Shoulders, was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize last week alongside Dr. Denis Mukwege, “for their work to highlight and eliminate the use of sexual violence as a weapon of war.”
Documented in On Her Shoulders, 23-year-old Nadia Murad leads a harrowing but vital crusade: to find the most influential platforms in the world and speak out on behalf of the embattled Yazidi community who face mass extermination by ISIS militants. Having narrowly escaped with her own life, Nadia must now relentlessly recount on radio shows, at rallies, and even on the floor of the United Nation’s general assembly her ordeal as a Yazidi sex slave and witness to her family’s brutal killings. Though excruciating, she forces herself to revisit these realities again and again. For without her testimony, the genocide happening right in front of the world’s eyes might go completely unnoticed.
