Daytrip

August 2021. After two decades of promoting women’s rights, international forces withdraw from Afghanistan. The Taliban swiftly seizes control, imposing Sharia Law. Educated women, once symbols of progress, now face persecution. Hanna, the first female judge in her province, flees to Kabul. Gul, a police officer, rushes to the airport. Shakiba, a famous young singer, hides in a safe house, and Fatima, a champion cyclist, is stranded at home. Desperate, they send frantic messages seeking help.
Danna Harman, an Israeli-American journalist, receives hundreds of pleas from Afghan women she once wrote about. Determined to help despite lacking experience, Danna mobilizes an impromptu group of friends, colleagues, activists, and power brokers worldwide for a daring extraction mission.
