Call Her Ganda
Description
This story tells about a controversial matter and a documentary issue that caused a sensation. That story began when a girl named Jennifer Lud, a Filipina woman, was brutally raped by a Marine. Things began to take another turn when three women investors moved decisively on the issue that sparked much controversy in order to bring the rights of the victim. They are an activist lawyer, a journalist and Jennifer's mother, trying to spur a political upheaval, hunt for justice and control the tight history of American imperialism that seemed clear.

With access to only one side of its central conflict, and a scattershot approach that skims over key details and points of interest, this well-intentioned documentary leaves audiences feeling like they're only getting part of a much larger story.
