My Forced Unwanted Wedding

With many British young people subjected to forced marriages every year, this film follows two teenagers - one already forced into marriage and the other facing one in Bangladesh.

At least 8,000 British young people face being forced into marriage every year. This documentary follows two British teenagers - Alia, already forced into marriage, and Jessie, facing a forced marriage in Bangladesh. Two years in the making, the film observes first-hand how two young girls cope with the enormous pressure from family expecting them to marry not for love, but for the sake of honour and the community.
