A young girl in Afghanistan disguises herself as a boy in order to provide for her family in this Oscar-nominated animated drama based on the best-selling novel.
"In Taliban-controlled Kabul, women and girls are not permitted to leave the house unescorted, to earn money, or to shop for food and supplies in the market. When Parvana's father, a teacher, is unfairly imprisoned, she must disguise herself as a boy to become her family's sole breadwinner. Showing courage and perseverance, Parvana does anything she can to support her family, while trying desperately to help free her father." (Toronto International Film Festival)
