Knots: A Forced Marriage - In the land of the free, some vows are chains

In a country that prides itself on freedom, thousands are trapped in marriages they never chose. This compelling documentary explores this dark undercurrent in American society through the voices of courageous survivors.

Their stories reveal how outdated laws, cultural pressure, and silence conspire to bind young women—sometimes children—to lives they didn’t choose. This eye-opening documentary sheds light on a crisis hiding in plain sight and demands a national reckoning.
