The title comes from suffragist and women’s rights activist Alice Paul’s 1974 quote, “I always feel the movement is a sort of mosaic. Each of us puts in one little stone.” Taking viewers to Berlin, Rio de Janeiro, India and the U.S., the thought-provoking film shows us that some hero women mentors are able to make a difference for those who have been suffering from domestic violence, female genital mutilation and sex trafficking. The film, which was written, produced and directed by Sophia Kruz and co-produced by cinematographer Meena Singh with music by Amritha Vaz, is expertly done and a must see. Although it leads us into a cruel world most of us can hardly fathom, it also shows how with the help of amazing women artists the exploited women may find peace and healing through their mentors.
