Child Marriage

Our third animated short-film from 'Shattering the Silence', entitled “Child Marriage”, is told through the eyes of a young girl, and follows the story of Mina, a child who is pulled out of school and married off at a young age. As the film progresses, we see the physical and mental toll that an early marriage can have on a child bride, and consequently the limited opportunities that lend themselves to women with no proper educational qualifications when marriages don't work out.
Through resilience, determination and awareness, Mina is ultimately able to turn her life around when she approaches Panah - a shelter that not only takes both Mina and her daughter in but gives her vocational training.

People say that child at 11 years old get married off because they get their period so it’s a sign that they are ready for pregnancy. No their not. Yes in the mental sens they’re not ready at all but also in the physical sense. There are girls who lost their womb due to a young pregnancy, people younger than 20 who became very sick, who even died because while the logic was there, it wouldn’t work in reality. My mother for example got a severe chronic injury in her back that’ll never heal by giving birth to me, and she was 22 or 23 so imagine a girl of 14. This is straight up abuse. Not only are they making a child work, they’re also exploiting her organs, they’re destroying her health for selfish purposes. Not to say its clearly pedophelia, especially if the girl marries a man who can be her father. Why do they treat woman and man differently? I want to ask the parents, so your son is your child but your daughter is not? They all came in this world the same way, why do you treat your daughter like a thing and your son like human? If you don’t consider every one of your child a treasure, you shouldn’t even be allowed to get children.

Someone i knew was forced to marry a man in his late 40s when she was only 12. Her parents just came into her room one day and told her they took a man’s dowry and that shes getting married in a few months. She didnt understand a lot of things like sex or love. Her parents didnt ask her if she wanted to marry him. She didnt even know how he looked like. She wasnt given the choice to say no. She got pregnant that same year and gave birth to her first child at 13. She never fought back against any horrible decision made for her by her parents, and eventually husband. She wasnt allowed education even though she wanted to learn. She wasnt allowed many things: her body, her consent, her mind. She was a puppet the day she was born.

[@Ken-nb7uz]

Yes also in rural areas some parents would've wedded their children before they even turn 18? Which is illegal because our consent and legal age of marriage is when they're 19. Mostly because family's struggling economically and have so many children so it's the easiest way to get rid of them especially the daughters. Not only that some people that's not from rural areas or because their economic reason are also glorifying underage marriage, think that it's completely normal.

Yes you are right. As a boy, I can understand that how curel are these boys which think them as the most powerful and they forget to respect women. Women is Shakti (Power) and without Shakti this world is useless. If our mothers are not there in our life no one will be there and no one can survive. Feel proud to be a girl. Goddess Durga is also Shakti and killed the demon Mahishasura, Goddess Kali killed Chanda and Munda., Raktabeeja, Shumbha and Nishumbha. Life is useless without a mother. Brothers can't take care of their siblings as compared to sisters. Even after criticising Lordess Annapurna (Goddess who fulfilles the food) Lord Shiva had to beg in front of Lorddess Annapurna to get food. If you will read Devi Mahatmyam or Devi Saptashati you will know that women is the real Shakti not the men. Shaktas (Follower of Shakti, Denomination of Hinduism), are the devotees of Shaktim

[@mmallick3224]

Be strong and fight against them who are against you.

[@mmallick3224]

Mahishasura got boon from Brahma (Supreme God of Hinduism) as Brahma got pleased by Mahishasura's deep meditation. He wanted to be immortal. Lord Brahma booned him and said, 'Neither a Lord or Man can kill you). When the devtaas in heaven asked Lord Brahma that why did he give that boon then he said, 'He will die in the hands of women'. The devtas pleased Adi Shakti Devi Durga and she killed Mahishasura. From that time onwards, she is known as Mahishasuramardini (The Lady who killed Mahishasura). Maa Kali also an avatar of Shakti killed the Raktabeeja, a demon who got the boon that when even a single drop of blood falls on the land, thousands of Raktabeeja will born. Maa Kali killed raktabeeja and drank his whole blood without falling a single drop of blood. Maa kali is Shmashan Charini. She notifies a person that she'll also take care of his son even after his child's death and waits for them in cremation ground. Mata Sarswati, Goddess of Knowledge, Mata Laxmi who is the Goddess of Wealth are the avatars of Shakti.
