"My name is Mary and I live in Kabul. I was born during the war, and I grew up during the war."

Mary is a beautiful young Afghan woman who wanted to become a doctor. She leapt at the chance to start medical school. But after one term Mary leaves Kabul university after suffering discrimination because of her sex.

Following the collapse of her education she resolves to become a journalist, and to document the suppressed lives of Afghanistan’s women. In a video diary styled commentary Mary narrates her fascinating journey. She shows no fear in directly challenging the bigotry she finds – and in doing so puts herself into significant danger. Shadows reveals that since the liberation of the country from the Taliban, little has changed beyond Kabul for Afghan women.
