Taiwan’s Modern Women’s Foundation invited thirteen abused women to take on a nearly impossible challenge: climbing mountains across Taiwan. This documentary follows these survivors of domestic violence as they heal themselves through an adventurous journey which gradually builds trust between them, and starts them talking about their dire experiences.
