An inspirational docu-drama depicting the story of a young girl from Chitral, who defies societal norms by pursuing her passion for ice hockey, premiered at a screening in Islamabad on Friday. Directed by Wajahat Malik, it highlights the journey of the Booni Girls ice hockey team from Chitral, showcasing their determination and the transformative power of inclusion and gender equality. Amanda DeSadeleer of the High Commission of Canada said that the Booni story was a powerful one. “We were thrilled when the director agreed to take on the job of capturing the work of the Booni Environmental Academy and how ice hockey, specifically girls ice hockey, has been at the heart of their journey,” she said. “We hope you, and the rest of the world, will be as inspired as we have been to watch these courageous girls become confident and successful young women, both on and off the ice,” she said.
