Cut: Exposing FGM Worldwide [Blu-ray] - Producer John Chua - Fiona Hardingham, Omri Rose

Among experts, conventional thinking says Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) came from Africa centuries ago, was adopted by certain Islamic sects, and now spreads globally through migration. Cut disproves this and shows how FGM is in fact a native practice on every inhabitable continent, revealing some surprising revelations along the way. Part adventure travelogue, part anthropological study, and certainly an explosive human rights exposé, the film is the result of nearly a decade of investigation by filmmaker John Chua. Highlights include testimonies from white American survivors and an Iraqi account of ISIS mandating FGM in Mosul alongside undercover video of medical clinics in Singapore offering to cut American and British girls and the first filmed testimonies of FGM in the Peruvian Amazon. The film attempts to answer the key questions of why FGM has for so long been mostly associated with Africa and why so many people globally are obsessed with committing this crime.
