Uma Thurman To Star In GIRL SOLDIERS

Uma ThurmanUma Thurman will star as a nun in Caspian Pictures’ indie drama “Girl Soldiers.” Based on Kathy Cook’s book “Stolen Angels,” the movie will follow the story of a 1996 armed rebel raid at a boarding school in Uganda, where young girls were abducted and made into soldiers and sex slaves. Thurman will play Sister Caroline, who helped rescue 140 of the girls after tracking down the rebels. She earned the support of governments, the UN and the pope during her campaign. “This is a film that had to get made. It’s beyond me that in this day and age the exploitation of child soldiers goes virtually unnoticed and unchecked by Western media,” Uma Thurman said. Will Raee, who co-founded Caspian Pictures in 2008, will direct from the script by Stephanie Pinola and Karen Croner.
