He Named Me Malala

ONE CHILD, ONE TEACHER, ONE BOOK AND ONE PEN CAN CHANGE THE WORLD.

henamedmemalalaAn Inconvenient Truth (2006) director Davis Guggenheim chronicles another larger-than-life figure on a mission, but this time someone decidedly different from a former U.S. vice president ā€“ the now 17-year-old Pakistani girl who fought for womenā€™s rights to get an education and was shot in the head by a Taliban gunman. Malala Yousafzai miraculously survived and now lives with her family in Birmingham, England where she struggles with homework and her status as a Nobel Peace Prize laureate and inspiration for countless women around the world who are subjected to male, cultural oppression. A worthy, important subject, and following Malalaā€™s life and interaction with her siblings and father is often fascinating, but this tidy film isnā€™t quite the emotional wallop that Guggenheim is aiming for.

2015-U.S.-United Arab Emirates. 88 min. Color. Directed byĀ Davis Guggenheim. Music: Thomas Newman.

Trivia: Inspired by the bok ā€œI Am Malalaā€ by Yousafzai and Christina Lamb.
