Actor Ali Fazal, who has previously featured in Hollywood films like “Death on the Nile” and “Victoria & Abdul”, said he is proud to be part of “Rule Breakers”, his next international release.
Slated to hit the big screen in North America on March 7, a day ahead of International Women’s Day, the upcoming film explores themes of resilience and defiance in Afghanistan.
“Rule Breakers” is directed by two-time Oscar winner Bill Guttentag and stars Phoebe Waller-Bridge and Nikohl Boosheri.
Described as a gripping, women-centric drama, the movie follows the story of a “visionary woman who dares to educate young girls in a society where such efforts are seen as an act of rebellion. As their innovation captures global attention, their success becomes both a beacon of hope and a source of conflict.”
Fazal, who plays the character of Samir Sinha, a techie from Los Angeles in “Rule Breakers”, said the film is nothing less of a “gem”.
