The Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the University of Luxembourg and UNICEF Luxembourg would like to emphasise the importance of the rights of girls and women by inviting you to the screening of the film: WHAT TOMORROW BRINGS

Synopsis

With unprecedented access, WHAT TOMORROW BRINGS goes inside the very first girls’ school in one small Afghan village. Never before have fathers here allowed their daughters to be educated. From the school’s beginnings in 2009 to its first graduation in 2015, filmmaker Beth Murphy embeds herself in this community for a most intimate look at what it really means to be a girl growing up in Afghanistan today, and what it takes to change hearts and minds.

In the presence of H.E. Ambassador Han-Maurits Schaapveld, Sandra Visscher, Director at UNICEF Luxembourg, and Prof. Tonie van Dam, Vice-Rector for Doctoral Education and Training, Gender and International Relations at the University of Luxembourg.
