Excellent film

I rewatched War Witch (also known as Rebelle, 2012) today. This powerful Oscar-nominated Canadian film is about an African girl who was abducted by the rebel army at the age of 12 and forced to be a child soldier. In her debut performance, young Rachel Mwanza is extraordinary. Prior to being cast in the film, Mwanza was living on the streets. She won the Silver Bear award for best actress at the Berlin International film festival, as well as the Canadian Screen Award for best actress. My rating is a 9/10.
