In the starkly beautiful and perilous world of Taliban-controlled Kabul, a determined young girl named Parvana, voiced by Saara Chaudry, finds her family shattered when her father is unjustly imprisoned. With no other male relative to provide for them, her mother Laara Sadiq and sisters face starvation under the oppressive regime's laws that forbid women from working or even appearing in public alone. To save her family, Parvana makes a daring and dangerous choice: she cuts her hair and disguises herself as a boy, becoming the titular breadwinner. As she navigates the treacherous marketplace, her newfound freedom is intertwined with fear of discovery. To bolster her courage, she weaves an epic tale of a young hero's quest, a story that mirrors her own struggle for justice and hope. Directed by Nora Twomey and executive produced by Angelina Jolie, this poignant animated drama, based on the novel by Deborah Ellis, explores resilience and the transformative power of storytelling against a backdrop of breathtaking animation and profound emotion.
