Sarah Amer organised Kota Wanita to give women space to talk about what matters to them.

“I am a feminist and proudly so,” says Sarah Amer. And it’s not just lip service with the 23-year-old documentary maker who has almost single-handedly put together Kota Wanita, an event for the women of Kuala Lumpur to come together and talk about issues that affect them daily.
