Flying Hands

Doc World | Season 8 Episode 2 | 51m 57s | CC

In Pakistan’s remote mountains, Aniqa Bano gave birth to her deaf daughter, Narjis, unaware of the deep stigma and silence surrounding deaf children. In a society that once kept them in the shadows, Aniqa challenges deep-rooted beliefs and lays a foundation where deaf youth now find not only education and respect, but a world of possibility.
