Los Angeles –
A rare inside account of the Taliban authorities‘ impact on Afghan women hits screens next week with the smartphone-filmed documentary „Bread & Roses.“
Produced by actress Jennifer Lawrence, who starred in „The Hunger Games,“ and Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai, this feature-length film immerses the viewer in the daily struggles endured by half the population of Afghanistan since the withdrawal of U.S. troops paved the way for Taliban leaders to seize power.
„When Kabul fell in 2021 all women lost their very basic rights. They lost their rights to be educated, to work,“ Lawrence said in Los Angeles.
