🇵🇰 Pakistan: Shabeena’s Quest l Witness

A film by Hemal Trivedi and Mohammed Naqvi

This is the story of Shabeena, a remarkable school principal, and her quest to bring education to the children, especially young girls, living in the shadow of the Taliban on Pakistan’s frontier.

Despite age-old traditions that keep girls out of school and send them into arranged marriages, Shabeena’s school actively recruits them.
