I'm a paramedic so I may look at this differently than some. I can't imagine any way that her body survived this attack, but even beyond that, if you can believe it, her spirit survived, and that is nothing short of a miracle.
It's very graphic, so if you are triggered, or delicate to such things you should probably pass it by. But my life is much better because I've seen this movie.
I've seen some criticize the way that it's presented. I personally think that it's perfect in every way.
I'm willing to bet that you've never heard a story like this before, and I'll bet dollars to donuts that you never will again. It's that incredible.
Plot summary
When the going gets really tough, we need ordinary people of extraordinary strength and courage to jolt us into action and offer us hope. In December 1994 Alison Botha became such an individual. She needed a hero that night, so that's what she became.

Easily one of the most amazing, powerful things I've ever seen...
Horrific and Beautiful all in one.
What Alison went through is one of the most terrifying ordeals I have ever heard of and I watch a lot of Crime Documentaries. Her recovery and her strength is truly beautiful to see. A really well made Documentary about a truly inspirational Human Being.
Inspiring , horrific and satisfying .
I could not watch those monsters commit the actual crime . It was too graphic for me . However , I did watch the rest of the story. I found what she said after she survived inspiring . I also am of the same opinion as Alison that we do not value ourselves . We measure our success by our careers and the amount of wealth we have , rather than the people we are .
It is a miracle that Alison survived, Call it an act of G-D . Alison is a strong , courageous woman. A woman to be admired. I hope those 'men ' never get parole .
