I Was Lorena Bobbitt

I Was Lorena Bobbitt chronicles—in her own words—how Lorena’s American dream became a nightmare at the hands of her increasingly violent husband, a justice system that ignored her pleas for help, and the media which turned her case into a national punchline. Nearly three decades later, Lorena takes centre stage to tell the story from her point of view. And as an advocate and crusader of victim’s rights, Lorena not only shares her story, but the resources and options available to those currently living in a domestic violence situation. The film stars Dani Montalvo and Luke Humphrey as the controversial couple.
