A couple weeks ago - there was a very special community screening of UNMUTED was held in Islamabad, it was more than just an event — it was a powerful act of truth-telling.
Hosted in collaboration with the @pakistanfilmsociety and @citizenpicmo , the evening was a profound reminder of why this docuseries exists: to return voice, agency, and dignity to those who’ve long been silenced.
We are deeply grateful to everyone who joined us for the screening and post-film discussion. Your presence and participation made space for meaningful dialogue, reflection, and action!
A special thank you to Hanifa, an acid attack survivor and one of the courageous women featured in the series. Her bravery and honesty left the room in powerful silence — a reminder that storytelling, at its best, doesn’t just inform — it transforms.
To the team at the Pakistan Film Society of Islamabad — thank you for curating such a safe, intentional, and compassionate gathering. You didn’t just host a screening — you created space for empathy and justice to thrive.
🎬 For those unfamiliar, the Pakistan Film Society is a filmmaker-run, community-driven platform working to revive cinema culture in Pakistan. Through weekly curated screenings, film nights, networking events, and hands-on workshops, they support emerging and independent filmmakers by offering platforms to showcase their work, build community, and collaborate.
We’re honoured to have partnered with such a thoughtful and purpose-driven organization. #UNMUTED #WXFilms #GBV

Change is possible when we stand together and find the courage to speak up. From fighting to end child marriage in state senates to overcoming the trauma of acid attacks, these incredible survivors are reclaiming their power. #UNMUTEDVoices #Resilience #EndChildMarriage #StandWithHer
Acid attacks are a brutal form of gender-based violence, often used as a weapon of control, revenge, or punishment for rejection. Survivors, most often women, are left to endure not only physical harm but long-term trauma, stigma, and social isolation.
Too often, they are rendered invisible by both society and justice systems. Yet many continue to speak out, sharing their stories of survival and their pursuit of justice.
Featuring Davina, whose strength and resilience continue to inspire a powerful reclaiming of identity, voice, and self in the face of the unimaginable.
This episode sheds light on the stigma survivors face, the systemic failures that allow these attacks to persist, and the advocates working to drive accountability, support, and healing.

As International Women’s Month comes to a close, we think about girls like Radha.
Girls with dreams and futures full of possibility, yet like millions around the world, their paths are often shaped by systems they didn’t choose.
Education is one of the most powerful tools we have to change this and help prevent child marriage.
When girls stay in school:
• They are more likely to delay marriage
• Build financial independence
• Advocate for themselves and their communities
Because every girl deserves the chance to choose her own future.
This month may be ending, but this work continues. 🤝

#StandWithHer
Throwback to our time at the #Sundance Film Festival this past January!
At the @impactloungeofficial , we came together to talk about what it really takes to create change around the hardest issues we face.
Our founder @charlottelubert shared why getting involved at every level matters, especially when it comes to driving meaningful change.
Bringing together the teams behind UNMUTED and To Kill a Tiger (@standwithhermovement ), alongside leaders in social impact (hey @citizenpicmo ), the conversation explored how storytelling can move us from awareness of gender-based violence to meaningful action.
Moments like these remind us how important it is to create space for dialogue and connection across communities.🌎️
UNMUTED is available for community screenings.

In recognition of International Women’s Month, our friends at Unchained At Last hosted a special New York screening of UNMUTED: Child Brides at the Church Center for the United Nations, alongside a global virtual audience on Zoom. Around 100 people attended the screening in person, joined by many more who joined online from across the globe.
The panel brought together director and showrunner Dena Hysell-Cornejo, survivor Jenn Bradbury, Fraidy Reiss, Founder of Unchained At Last, and Mona Sinha, Global Executive Director of Equality Now, one of UNMUTED’s nonprofit partners. Together, they explored the realities of child marriage across regions, highlighting both shared challenges and important differences between contexts such as the U.S. and India.
Thank you to our partners @unchainedatlast for making this happen and supporting us throughout this journey. hashtag#UNMUTED
