Synopsis by Maggie Sadler

In Pakistan's Swat Valley, outspoken teen activist Malala Yousafzai (Reem Shaikh) boarded the bus to venture home from school. However, her pursuit of education stood as a direct challenge to the authoritarian Taliban regime, who retaliated by dispatching a gunman to assassinate her. Despite suffering a gunshot wound to the head, Malala made a full recovery, rising to the global stage to advocate for free education for all, regardless of gender, race, or religion. Based on true events. Directed by Amjad Khan.
