Monirah Hashemi was born in Iran to Afghan parents. Now living in Sweeden she is exploring the use of culture as a tool for championing citizenship and democracy. Sitaraha (The Stars) is her new show, which we're very excited to be hosting at the Ventnor Exchange for one night only.
A storyteller who is collecting the tales of women and tells about the life of women from 130 years ago right up to the present day in Afghanistan. She tells about Gul – Begum and all Urozgan, women who have been enslaved during the Abdul- Rahman Khan attack in the central provinces of Afghanistan, the story of Sara during the civil war and what happened to Halima in Afghanistan in 2014.
