This documentary follows Stacey Dooley on her journey with the Yazidi women who wanted to get revenge on Isis after they had been held captive by them. The documentary showed representations of gender and age as there were stories told where young girls had been raped and totured when help captive. There was one story where a womens child had been cooked and she was forced to eat it. It is also a representaion of gender as the women are strong and confident in fighting which is breaking out of the stereotypes. The women had become stronger after being tortured as they felt they needed to avenge the other womens deaths. the documentary also shows representations of religion as the reason isis where killing the yazidi women is because they believed they were devil worshipors. One of the women told a story about how a girl killed herself and they left the body out for the dogs to eat. The rest of the women wanted to kill eachother but they couldnt as their hands were tied to the beds. There was another time where two sisters were tortured because they jumped in front of their dad who was just about to be beheaded. These are all representations of issues.
