This is the story of Aisuluu who is one of the many victims of the kidnapping of child brides by marriage, which in Kyrgyzstan is a true tradition: "Ala Kachuu". Aisulu was only 16 years old when her mother organized her wedding, this involves the kidnapping of the unsuspecting girl, who will subsequently be locked up, subjugated with physical and psychological violence by her future husband and by the families of both. Today Aisulu is sitting in front of me, her voice is calm but she has the gloomy look of someone who has been to hell and managed to escape.
