Members of an all-girls robotics team from Afghanistan struggle to succeed in international competitions, while combating male-dominated culture and the threat of Taliban rule. 


AFGHAN DREAMERS presents the heart-wrenching testimony of the strength and determination of the Afghan Girls Robotics team who narrate their own story, starting in 2017 when Afghan girls could still dream of careers in science and technology – a dream that is thwarted when the Taliban returns to power.
