If you’re seeking a film that combines inspiration, courage, and the transformative power of education, Rule Breakers is a must-see. This 2025 drama, directed by Oscar-winner Bill Guttentag, tells the true story of Roya Mahboob and Afghanistan’s first all-female robotics team, the Afghan Dreamers. In a country where educating girls is considered an act of rebellion, these young women dared to dream and defied the odds to compete on the global stage.
The film not only showcases their technical achievements but also delves into the personal and societal challenges they faced. The movie serves as a poignant reminder of the importance of education and the resilience of the human spirit.
Currently playing at SALA, Rule Breakers is a powerful testament to the strength of young women pursuing education against all odds. Don’t miss the opportunity to witness this inspiring story on the big screen and support a local business at the same time!! I strongly recommend making time to see Rule Breakers this weekend.
Showtimes are Friday and Saturday 4:00pm and 6:00pm, Sunday 4:30pm and 6:30pm. https://sala.losalamos.com/events/rule-breakers/
