Synopsis
An European woman has been captured by a family and has been living as a domestic slave for 10 years. She is one of the 45 million victims of modern day slavery nowadays. Taking the courage from the director's presence, she decides to scape from the unbearable oppression and become a free person. One of the bravest, most breathtaking and emotional documentaries of the year. Released in Sundance and nominated in the European Film Awards to Best Documentary Feature. Undoubtedly, a painful but necessary testimony in an all-the-time changing Europe, but not always forward. The Guardian said about it that "showed how the film world can make the difference". Despite the international repercussion, 'A woman captured' is only the debut film by its writer and director.

The film is an outstanding personal and social-justice achievement.
Read - VarietyGuy Lodge
A clammily harrowing, gradually hopeful debut feature, it?s hard to look past the time- and toil-ravaged face of the woman in question.
Read - The Hollywood ReporterNeil Young
'A Woman Captured' is more than promising as a debut, achieving a specially intense intimacy with its subject that pays unquestionable and welcome real-life dividends for all concerned.
