This beautiful graphic-novel adaptation of The Breadwinner animated
film tells the story of eleven-year-old Parvana who must disguise
herself as a boy to support her family during the Taliban's rule in
Afghanistan. Parvana lives with her family in one room of a
bombed-out apartment building in Kabul, Afghanistan's capital city.
Parvana's father - a history teacher until his school was bombed
and his health destroyed - works from a blanket on the ground in
the marketplace, reading letters for people who cannot read or
write. One day, he is arrested for having forbidden books, and the
family is left without someone who can earn money or even shop for
food. As conditions for the family grow desperate, only one
solution emerges. Forbidden to earn money as a girl, Parvana must
transform herself into a boy, and become the breadwinner. Deborah
Ellis's beloved novel has been adapted for film by Aircraft
Pictures, Cartoon Saloon and Melusine Productions in association
with Angelina Jolie's production company, jolie pas productions.
The animated feature film, directed by Nora Twomey, will launch in
the UK in 2018.
