This documentary by Sweta Vohra follows the inspirational journey of Naina, Niru, Jaya, Neeta and their boarding school classmates in Gujarat, India. It explores the ways in which education remains limited in rural India for all children, as well as the challenges that young women in particular must overcome to advance from traditional societal roles and village mentalities. 

Following the screening, there will be an opportunity to discuss the documentary with the director. We invite you to join us for an informative evening. Please click here for admission.
