As a film that puts FGM/female circumcision under the spotlight, 'Desert Flower' is immediately marked out as a rarity and one to watch. Scenes of the cacophony of London Fashion Week offer some brief respite from the horror, but the sterling performances drive it through. I strongly suggest you read the book before seeing the film, it is even more moving. An inspiring film that will change you, regardless of your gender.
