An intimate story about the tragic use of rape as a weapon of war told through the personal stories of three young girls who were abducted, taken to be rebel wives, sex slaves, domestic servants and combatants held for many years against their will; and one boy abducted to be a child combatant.

WITNESS filmmakers worked with Binta Mansaray, travelling to war torn Sierra Leone to make the first documentary that reports extensively and exclusively on this hidden yet pervasive part of the war in Sierra Leone. The filmmakers also took the risk to travel to the headquarters of the Revolutionary United Front (RUF) to get one of the first ever interviews with the perpetrators themselves, and the documentary includes their chilling denial of the crimes committed.

Operation Fine Girl ultimately goes beyond the borders of Sierra Leone to offer a stark picture of how and why women and children are often the most victimized in wartime.
