| Summary: | Roshini Thinakaran is a filmmaker with National Geographic. Her focus is on regions devastated by war. Through her travels she has met women who are dedicated to moving on with their lives, supporting their families and rebuilding their homelands. "My goal is to bring awareness to women who are making real strides and to eventually build schools in these countries, for both girls and boys. If you don't empower people with education, societies will break down." Women at the Forefront is Thinakaran's film project, which reveals a strong women's movement—born of oppression and hardship—happening all around the world.. |
