The Rabbit Proof Fence

Molly should not be characterized as a hero because I think of heros as a person who helps or saves others. In the movie the Rabbit Proof Fence, Molly does not help her sisters because she leads them to escape from the place where the half aboriginal kids were gathered by the white people. I think Molly's actions with her sister, will just lead the three girls into trouble with everyone if they get caught by the tracker. However, Molly could be characterized as a hero if she doesn't fail in escaping with her sisters and returns to their family. So in my opinion, Molly could be a hero if she succeeds in her escape with her sisters. But, if the girls get caught they would be punished and it would be Molly's fault if they get into trouble.
