‘Bread & Roses,’ directed by Afghan filmmaker Sahra Mani and produced by Jennifer Lawrence, premieres on Apple TV+ on November 22. This poignant documentary, filmed by Afghan women using smartphones, depicts their daily struggles against Taliban oppression following the U.S. withdrawal in 2021. The film follows three women, including a dentist leading protests and a former government employee confined to her home, illustrating the severe gender apartheid enforced by the Taliban. Malala Yousafzai, an executive producer, emphasizes that Islam does not prohibit women’s education and employment, urging global awareness of their plight.
