The Breadwinner
Cartoon Saloon (Book of Kells and Song of the Sea) crafted many exceptional movies set in amazing cultural backdrops. With this film, the veil in what Afghanistan looks like may well get lifted and what audiences will see is a story of hope. A young girl has to deal with prejudices and a world dominated by men to help her family survive.
This film made its film festival premiere in September and November at both Toronto International Film Festival and saw limited screenings across the States respectively. A wider distribution is expected in 2018 as GKIDS is handling distribution.
