Very first time I saw this unforgetable movie in Kuwait in 1996.it was recorded on VHS tapes. Believe me I saw this movie more than 100 times and every time I found it more informative,more practical,more live commentary of an innocent girl's life. It shows to us how the circumstances push us towards the fate. Emma the heroin,acts at her best and put you in tears when in troubles and sorrows.Her mission to get revenge from Adwin( her flirt lover) is a real reaction of a common woman. I advised and provided this great movie to most of my female friends and cousins to watch and get moral support from it when they fall in troubles like Emma. Now when my two daughters are quite grown up and need guidence. Unfortunately this movie is very hard to find in Pakistan. May be some day I,ll find it out and will be able to show it to my daughters. Because they are very much tired off of listening only about this movie. They need to watch it as soon as possible. I recomend to all the fathers to their daughters to buy it right now and let watch them this a piece of advice.

An inspirational story
