Unforgivable. Don’t give up…
My heart screams.
Parents sell their teen daughter to a man of sixties.
They say it is a custom.
Sonita, an Afghan rapper, defies her destiny, risks her life, and sings.
Her strong will changes own life, and this single person’s cry moves the society.
I ended up crying at many scenes.
I have worked with many musicians but I haven’t seen any being with this much passion and pure heart.
Sonita, I pray for your happiness and for your future from bottom of my heart.
