Overview

Over the course of a controversial 10-year revolution in Nepal, 40% of the guerilla army fighting against the government were women. "Woman Rebel" follows the story of one such woman (codename "Silu") on her incredible journey — from the jungles, all the way through to the halls of Parliament. It's a powerful, unconventional topic featuring women as agents of change, not victims of circumstance.
