Don’t Give Disney a Pat on the Back for Doing the Bare Minimum
Disney has cleverly managed to dance around the misdeeds of their past by scraping by with an insincere action that does very little to incite any long-lasting positive changes.
Girls Move Mountains
In the remote and rugged north of Pakistan, amidst the towering 6000-meter peaks of the Karakoram Mountain Range, Karishma, a fearless indigenous woman and co-founder of the Gilgit-Baltistan Girls Football League, champions girls' rights in a world where soccer is more than just a game. As a child, Karishma faced harassment for wearing soccer attire, and as a woman, she battles online bullying from aggressive crowds challenging the rights of girls in the mountains. She has numerous opponents, but she also has the unconditional support of her grandmother, a wise Wakhi woman who lives in a hut in an isolated village. Girls Move Mountains explores the enduring struggle for women's rights in the pursuit of a fairer world, while it shows how older generations plant seeds for the ones to come.
