DONNA Stronger Than Pretty is a romantic tragedy, an unlove story, that spans three decades in the life of a gentle young woman, Donna, as she tries to live up to the traditions and expectations of her Italian roots and of the “American Dream”. That dream becomes a living nightmare and nearly breaks her until she finds the silent force of her inner voice and breaks free from a husband who refuses to be responsible to her, himself, their family, or even his own dreams.

    This movie was touching, heartbreaking, and empowering. The actors portray their roles so well in telling the story of Donna. Kate Amundsen shows both strength and vulnerability so well in her role, making you grow attached to the story. It shows the importance of friends' and family's love and support throughout rough times and perseverance no matter what. DONNA is a great representation of a topic that deserves awareness!
  • For anyone struggling to find the warrior within!

    This film is incredible on so many levels. As Donna goes from girlhood to womanhood and she journeys into what is supposed to be the beautiful unfolding years of creating a family and raising her children, she is met w the unexpected reality of domestic abuse. How this affects her and her 3 children and how she found her inner warrior, thus, her own voice, is empowering to say the least. As she soldiers on and finds her own inner strength and ways out of a vey harrowing reality, she reminds us there is always hope to find ‘ways through and out’ if we can keep just believing in ourselves and through putting one foot in front of the other while trying to cultivate the strength within to seek and make change. An powerful true story, this film will inspire anyone dealing w this all too common of a reality. The actors do an incredible job bringing these characters to life. The costuming and music really add to the overall mood and feel of the film. I give Donna 5 stars!

    Such an amazing and beautifully shot movie! The struggles that Donna endures and preserves through is so inspiring. Donna is the embodiment of a strong and independent woman that didn’t let her abusive relationship stop her from achieving her dreams. This film also highlights the importance of taking a stance against domestic abuse. I absolutely loved the film, definitely recommend watching!

    Best film! A must see! The message of this film and the strength of Donna are so powerful and inspiring. She will influence woman all over the world to find their voice and their strength! It’s amazing to finally have a film about domestic abuse that most can relate to. Abuse come in many forms, not just physical. Thanks for helping me realize that in this life we have to be Stronger than Pretty! 😘😘😘

    This story seems to be one that anyone can get behind, especially in a world where social and gender conventions are the perceived norm. Donna reminds many viewers that there is hope at the end of all of this, and to go and find that hope. Perhaps the strongest aspect of this movie is the message itself, anyone can find themselves in Donna's shoes.
