  • EXTENDED SYNOPSIS

En plena cordillera del Karakórum, en Pakistán, Aniqa Bano da a luz a una niña sorda, Narjis Khatoon. Antes de su nacimiento, Aniqa no sólo desconocía el rechazo y el estigma existentes sobre quienes nacen sin audición sino también su propia existencia, ya que se les ocultaba por la vergüenza de sus familias.
Dieciséis años después, Narjis lee los diarios de su madre donde narra los obstáculos personales y sociales que ha tenido que superar para defender la dignidad y los derechos de quienes no aspiran a tener una vida plena, como seres humanos. Personas a quienes se les da una identidad basada en su discapacidad: no se les llama por su nombre, sino “sordo” o “sorda”.
Madre e hija nos llevan de viajes por la región de Baltistán, donde Aniqa ha construido una escuela para niños y niñas sordas. Allí no sólo reciben educación y respeto, sino que descubren un mundo de posibilidades y derechos al que también pueden aspirar.
Esta historia nos habla de un compromiso con la integración y la igualdad de oportunidades para todas y contribución para un cambio cultural. Aniqa no sólo lucha por los derechos de sus propias hijas, sino por los derechos de todas las hijas e hijos de su comunidad.

In the middle of the Karakoram mountain range in Pakistan, Aniqa Bano gives birth to a deaf girl, Narjis.
Until then, she was unaware not only of the rejection and stigma attached to people with such disabilities, but also of their very existence, as they remained hidden, without an identity or a name, due to the shame of their families.
Sixteen years later, Narjis reads her mother’s diaries, where she narrates the personal and social obstacles she has had to overcome to defend the dignity and rights of a group that had been condemned for centuries to not be able to have a full life as human beings.
Mother and daughter take us on a journey through the Baltistan region, where Aniqa has built both a school and a home for deaf people. Thanks to these spaces, local deaf children not only have the chance to receive an education, but also discover a world of possibilities and rights to which they can aspire to.
This story tells us of a commitment, of how integration and equal opportunities for everyone are a direct benefit to the coexistence of society. Aniqa has not only fought for the rights of her own daughter, but for the rights of those undergoing the same struggles within her community. Narjis changed the life of her mother, and Aniqa changed the life her daughter was doomed to have. (Limonero Films)
