Donations would go to support charities for #HUMANRIGHTS / Child marriage

In #HUMANRIGHTS / Child marriage

In Guatemala, it's legal for a girl to marry as young as 14 — though many are married far younger than that. The result: Many girls marry men far older than themselves and become mothers long before they are physically and emotionally ready. Communicating the individual experiences of these child brides across cultural and language barriers became my passion, and, ultimately, my life's work. This project in Guatemala was done in partnership with the United Nations Population Fund. The film below was co-directed by Katie Orlinsky. Presented by UNFPA and VII Photo Agency
