Iqbal

Inspired by the life of child-activist Iqbal Masih, this world premiere celebrates the struggle and triumph of child workers in a Pakistani carpet factory. Under the harsh labor and stern eye of the factory master, Fatima and the other children discover ways to laugh and share moments of tenderness, but they have forgotten how to dream. So when a new boy joins their ranks and dares to rebel, he inspires them to help each other reach for a better life.
