Women from Rote Island

A young woman returns home after her father's funeral, where she reunites with her mother and sister, Martha (Irma Novita Rihi), but the trauma of a brutal attack lingers in her mind as she navigates her own traumatic experience of sexual violence in her workplace. The film explores themes of trauma, family, and survival in a dark and provocative portrayal of the effects of exploitation. Through the eyes of Martha, the audience is forced to confront the harsh realities of life in Rote Island, where the lines between victimhood and resilience are constantly tested.
