Winner of the Cannes film festival Jury Prize in 2003, this film, directed by Samira Makhmalbaf (daughter of Mohsen Makhmalbaf, creator of the highly-acclaimed film 'Kandahar'), was the first foreign film to be made in Kabul, Afghanistan after the Taliban were overthrown. Centred around the story of Noqreh, a progressive young woman who dreams of growing up to be the President of the Republic despite her oppressive home life and a strained relationship with her bigoted but loving father, the film portrays the daily struggles of Afghan women in post-Taliban Afghanistan with tenderness and hope against a tragic background of death and despair.
