Linor Abargil

Film of Israeli Rape Victim Who Became Miss World, at AFI

By Lori Lowenthal Marcus

Tied up and raped at knifepoint, Linor Abargil was able to escape, to press charges, to find other victims of the same rapist, and make a documentary about how to speak out. Oh, and she was crowned "Miss World" just seven weeks after being raped.
