One hint, 6 chances, and a new movie to guess every day
A young mother escapes her abusive husband and fights back against a broken housing system. She sets out to build her own home and in the process rebuilds her life and re-discovers herself.
"Directed by Phyllida Lloyd (Iron Lady), Herself is a movie that exposes the helplessness and injustices, both economic and social, that many women, usually victims of violence, face when they separate from their partners. The story is about a woman who separates from her abusive husband and takes her daughters with her, but she faces the difficulties and prejudices of the protection system. Although it deals with difficult topics, the film also addresses the hope that exists in the communities and support networks that help us persevere, move forward, and recover."
