WE ARE NOT POWERLESS
(2025)
PREMIERING AT AFF 2025 — In December 2012, Muzafar Ali and his wife Nagina escaped the Taliban in Afghanistan. They found themselves living in Indonesia as refugees when Australia ‘stopped the boats’. Determined to do something, they started a small two room school, which soon became the hub of a community and one of the most successful refugee-led initiatives in the world.
