Автор, набеpите в поисковике Laxmi Saa и посмотрите ее фотографии.Интервью с ней на английском я недавно слушала здесь:http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p03hjzt0 Ее история в двух словах.В 15  лет один парень предложил ей пойти за него замуж, но она отказалась. Он облил ее кислотой. Она 3 месяца провела в больнице. Когда вернулась домой, то родители убрали из дома все зеркала, потому что у нее просто не было лица. Она не хотела жить, но ее очень поддерживали ее родители, особенно отец.Первое время она выходила из дома, закрывая лицо шарфом, но потом она перестала прятать его. Люди бросали ей вслед ужасные слова вроде: "Своим лицом ты пугаешь детей", вслед ей неслись насмешки и оскорбления. А надо отметить, что в индийской культуре женщине очень важно иметь красивое лицо.Но она все же встретила человека, который очень поддерживал ее. И даже вышла за него замуж. "Алок видел мои качества, а не мое лицо", - так сказала она про него.Взгляните на их счастливые лица!А еще она стала моделью. Ее работа - это послание всем выжившим жертвам аналогичных нападений: "Мы тоже имеем право на жизнь, на работу, на место в обществе!"Ниже - это интервью на английском.P.S. А еще у меня есть материал про Jessicа Cox. Это американка, которая родилась без рук. Она очень многое научилась делать ногами и даже стала пилотом самолета. Посмотрите ее фото, не поленитесь!Acid Attack Survivor Became a ModelLaxmi Saa was 15 years old and she was walking along the street when somebody threw acid into her face and body. It was in 2005. Here is the interview with Laxmi.Laxmi, tell us how did it happen?When the acid was poured on me I lost consciousness. I felt as if my body was in the fire. Nobody came to me to help. People were standing around me and looking at me. Then they call the police and took me to the hospital. Doctors at hospital pored 20 bucket of water on my face. One drop of the acid had fallen into my left eye. So I had 5 operations on my eye later.Why did nobody come to help you?People in India usually want to help in such situations. But they are afraid of the police. The police start asking people, who were helping to the victims, first but people do not like it.What was the reason of the attack?Somebody was in love with me and wanted to marry me but I did not want to. I said him ‘No’ but he sent me a message that he loved me and wanted to marry me. I did not answer him but the next day he and his brother met me in the street and poured the acid into my face.How seriously were your face and body injured?Nearly 45% of my body were injured – face, neck, both arms. This treatment was very long and expensive too. I was lucky as the boss of my father paid for it. I spent two and half months at hospital.Was it difficult to look at your face in the mirror after the hospital?First I did not realize what had happened to me because I did not see myself in the mirror. My parents hid all mirrors in our house but I was trying to see myself. I was looking in the water and one day I managed to see myself. It was completely shocking. I did not have a nose, my skin was completely burnt. There was no face at all! It was very difficult for me. I did not want to live. My parents helped me a lot and I am here just because of their care.Did you go through a long period of depression?Yes, I did not want to live. My father was talking to me and he gave me lots of courage. I am here because of him! First when I was going out I was always hiding my face. After a couple of years I started to go out without my scarf. I was hearing lots of negative voices, like, ‘Children will scared if they see your face!’ or ‘Look at her! She looks so nice from the back! But she is very scaring from the front!’ You know, a face is the very important for women in Indian society.But one day you met somebody called Alok Dixit. Tell us about him.Oh, yes! There were lots of negative people around me. I was loosing any hope but suddenly I met such a positive person! He did not see my face, he saw my qualities. And… I fall in love with him.You recently started a modeling career. Was it a difficult decision for you?The most important thing for me in modeling is the message. The massage that all victims of the acid attacks have the right to do what they want. They have the right to outside without hiding their faces. They have the right to get jobs. They have the right to live in the society. And your message is that you are beautiful!Oh, thank you!
