If you haven’t already heard of Malala Yousafzai, I would be very surprised. She’s the young lady who was target by the Taliban and wounded by gunshots when coming home on her school bus. The reason? For advocating for girls’ education. A global broadcast of He Named Me Malala will be premiering this coming Monday, February 29th at 8pm EST/7pm CST. Make sure to read on to find out more about the movie, see the poster and watch an official trailer!
HE NAMED ME MALALA is an intimate portrait of Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Malala Yousafzai, who was targeted by the Taliban and severely wounded by a gunshot when returning home on her school bus in Pakistan’s Swat Valley. The then 15-year-old was singled out, along with her father, for advocating for girls’ education, and the attack on her sparked an outcry from supporters around the world. She miraculously survived and is now a leading campaigner for girls’ education globally as co-founder of the Malala Fund.Acclaimed documentary filmmaker Davis Guggenheim (An Inconvenient Truth, Waiting for Superman) shows us how Malala, her father Zia and her family are committed to fighting for education for all girls worldwide. The film gives us an inside glimpse into this extraordinary young girl’s lifeComments
