You might have heard about Malala, a girl who survived being shot by the Taliban for wanting to get an education. You probably have even heard of the book that she wrote or the movie about her. You might even know that she is a Nobel Peace Prize winner.
Now comes her story to television. The global broadcast premier will be on the National Geographic channel this coming Monday, Feb. 29th. at 8PM EST/7PMCST.
ABOUT THE MOVIE:
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 life – from her close relationship with her father who inspired her love for education, to her impassioned speeches at the UN, to her everyday life with her parents and brothers.
Join me and others as we watch this brave young lady stand up for the education of girls.
