Edmonton Supports Right to Learn Afghanistan presents Brishkay Ahmad's "In the Room", an intimate look into the lives of Afghan women.

Right to Learn Afghanistan (Edmonton Supporters) will be screening Brishkay Ahmed's 2025 documentary "In The Room", a production of the National Film Board. Resistance stories from five Afghan women come together to showcase the defiance, sisterhood, and enduring fight for women's freedom in Afghanistan. We'll have a brief presentation following the film, and will invite guests to join us for a glass of wine and nibbles afterwards in the theatre foyer, along with some Afghan dambura music!

Tickets are available at no charge. We'll be asking for donations at the event if you feel able to contribute to the amazing work of Right to Learn Afghanistan!
