FREE NFB screening – Afghan Women Issue

by

Hi ghazala and juvaria

Hello Professor Narain and team,

I’m an Afghan-Canadian filmmaker and very excited to share news of my National Film Board documentary – IN THE ROOM – screening in Montreal. Since your work focuses on gender, human rights, and equity, I’d appreciate it if you can share it with your students, faculty, and community. It’s a free screening! 

If you are busy, I understand. No worries. Take care of your needs, first. Shine bright!

No human in the world should live as Afghan women do right now. Change is possible, if we unite and stand up to tyrants – together as humans from different communities.”

With tremendous gratitude,
