Somalia Gets the Hollywood Treatment

The movie trailer for “Desert Flower,” the new feature about the short and very eventful life of Somali model Waris Dirie–she was circumcised at 5, married off at 13, was a supermodel by the time she was 18 and is now a UN spokeswoman against female genital mutilation. If the trailer is anything to go by, we can expect a not very good movie.
