In a society where women are bullied to silence, how long can you wait, plan and exert revenge?
The issue of rape keeps soaring each day, with women as the most taunted victims, cutting across various age groups, from children as young as four to teenagers and even most appalling records of old women.
In as much as government sign laws to torture perpetrators of such dehumanizing acts, the lapses in their enforcement has encouraged more demeaning acts that are recorded every day.
As the female gender keeps being victimized, she is further bullied into silence by both her tormentor and the society.
This is the situation the producers of “Scorned”, Christiana Martins and Tokunbo Ahmed have bravely come out to address.
Co-producer and director of “Scorned”, Tokunbo Ahmed, said what prompted the idea of the movie was the need to address the prolonged and repeated silence of the victims of rape.
