How moved and shocked they were. They felt the same way I did when I first heard about bride kidnapping. I receive an incredible amount of messages from all over the world in which people tell me how moved they are by the film. I am always very touched. This increasing awareness has already helped us collect many donations that benefit women in Kyrgyzstan.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Our goal was to draw attention to bride kidnapping, and we are succeeding.
