As we watch with heavy hearts as the Taliban takes over in Afghanistan, we are making a selection of films available for free that shed light on the history of this region and, most importantly, that highlight the voices and lived experiences of Afghan women.
In the midst of the political tumult and our fear for women’s lives and rights, it’s important for all of us to know more about the country and the lives of Afghan women — to see their struggles as well as their incredible triumphs over the last 20 years. From the story of the first woman member of parliament to the first women video journalists in the country, from the story of a woman fighting against sexual abuse and winning in the courts to the triumph of Sonita over child marriage, the films in this collection demonstrate what Afghan woman have accomplished in a generation. This context is important as we contemplate how to support women in Afghanistan moving forward.
In response to this important moment, we are making the films below, which are part of our Voices of Afghan Women collection, available to watch for free August 20, 2021 through Tuesday, August 31, 2021.
在阿富汗局势动荡之际,关注女性影人的独立电影发行机构 Women Make Movies 正在他们的网站上免费放映九部有关阿富汗的纪录片,内容聚焦于这一地区的历史以及阿富汗女性的声音及生活经验。此次线上影展将持续至8月31日,观影请于官网注册。
