Osama was made in Afghanistan in 2003 by Siddiq Barmak. This powerful film is about a 12-year-old Afghan girl who must rely on desperate measures to survive. She and her mother lose their jobs when the Taliban closes the hospital where they work The Taliban have also forbidden women from leaving their houses without a male "legal companion." With her husband dead, killed in battle, there is no one left to support the family. Feeling that she has no other choice, she disguises her daughter as a boy. Now called Osama, the girl embarks on a terrifying journey as she tries to keep the Taliban from finding out her true identity. Osama was the first Afghan film made after the fall of the Taliban.
