Maydegol + Q&A

An Afghan teen girl living in Teheran lives for her dream to become a professional Muay Thai boxer. To do so, she has to overcome many hurdles - rigid training, a family that doesn’t approve of her dream, and the severe limitations imposed on Afghan refugees living in Iran. 

A timely documentary looking at the situation for Afghans who have fled decades of conflict and repressive regimes - and at the ways in which people cope with the uncertainty they face.
