Based on Deborah Ellis’ award-winning novel and executive produced by Angelina Jolie, The Breadwinner tells the extraordinary story of an 11-year-old Afghan girl, born into an ever-changing world of conflict and oppression, who finds strength in the love of her family and the power of storytelling. Unable to earn money as a girl, Parvana disguises herself as a boy to support her family when her father is taken away by the Taliban. 

 

A chance to see the highly-anticipated new Oscar-nominated feature from Cartoon Saloon (Song of the Sea, The Secret of Kells) before its UK release.
