"Difret" is a Timeless African Classic Drama



Difret


Difret is an Ethiopian movie based on real life events. It focuses on the case of Aberash Bekele (renamed as Hirut Assefa in the movie) who was 14 when she was abducted and raped then subsequently murdered her rapist in self-defense.  It also focuses on Meaza Ashenafi, the founder of the Ethiopian Women Lawyers Association, who acted as Hirut’s lawyer and defender throughout the movie. The movie tackles multiple issues with an emphasis on the issue of Women’s rights in Ethiopia, and one might extend that to the rest of the African continent. Difret is great for people interested in Women’s rights, especially in African countries, and if you’re looking for real life badass sheros to emulate.
