YMMV / Desert Flower

• Nightmare Fuel: The flashback where Waris is subjected to female genital mutilation at the age of three. The procedure is done without any sort of anesthesia in very poor conditions near the desert, and Waris screams in pain the entire time. During the flashback, she narrates that her wound infected and she became very sick. This is made worse by the fact that this is a film based on an autobiography, and all of this really happened to the real Waris Dirie, and still happens to thousands of girls around the world.
