《馬拉拉：改變世界的力量》

馬拉拉因爭取女性接受教育而聞名。她受到其教育家父親的啟發，年紀輕輕已不時發表相關平權言論；2012年正值15歲時，在巴基斯坦放學回家途中，遭受塔利班槍手襲擊頭部重創！歷劫逢生，馬拉拉被送到英國接受治療及休養，其父母親及兩名弟弟隨後也到這裡定居。襲擊事件不單只造就「Malala Fund」的成立，她在聯合國發表的演說也引起世界高度關注。

《He Named Me Malala》透過馬拉拉這數年間不懈地爭取和捍衛女性平權的事跡，狠狠地揭露暴力及極權下，女性和弱勢社群被剝削的慘況。現年18歲的馬拉拉當初在面對死亡威脅時，她與家人互相扶持，方能支持她踏上這條荊棘滿途的政治之路……

《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.
