Difret (2014)

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.

. The lawyer perfectly embodies the strong, self-sufficient woman figure that Ethiopia needs to face and defeat its bigotry. That is not to say that Difret is free from flaws, mostly ascribable to poor writing and editing.

Difret is heavy-handed cinema and conflicted advocacy for a cause that deserves better.

The film focuses on the moving and complex relationship between Hirut (Tizita Hagere) and her lawyer Meaza Ashenafi (Meron Getnet) as they battle a death sentence and prejudice against women.

It's not always a riveting sit, perhaps too procedural at times, but the effort excels at providing a glimpse of a little-known human rights violation, and one that continues to occur around the world to this day.

Misogyny, tradition, innocence and experience are among the themes given a sophisticated treatment herein.
