EUSKADI PREMIERE
In the middle of the Karakoram Mountain range in Pakistan, Aniqa Bano gives birth to a deaf baby girl, Narjis. Until then, she was unaware of the rejection and stigma attached to girls with this type of affliction, who remained hidden and isolated because of their families' shame. Sixteen years later, Narjis reads her mother's diaries in which she recounts the obstacles, both personal and social, that she has had to overcome. Mother and daughter take us on a journey through the Baltistan region, where Aniqa has built a school and home for the deaf. Narjis changed her mother's life and Aniqa changed the life her daughter was destined for.
