Osama (2004)
Bajo el opresivo régimen talibán, la madre de una muchacha de 12 años, médico de profesión, pierde su empleo en un hospital y las dos mujeres, así como la abuela, se convierten en auténticas prisioneras en su propia casa, ya que no pueden abandonarla sin un «acompañante legal» y tienen prohibido trabajar fuera para ganarse la vida. La madre y la abuela urden un plan: le cortarán el pelo a la chica y cambiarán su indumentaria, para que parezca un muchacho. Asustada ante la posibilidad de que se descubra su secreto, la joven –que ha adoptado el nombre de Osama– empieza a trabajar para un tendero del vecindario, que fue amigo de su padre. Pero pronto llega a la edad de tener que acudir a la escuela islámica, y allí será más difícil ocultar su verdadera identidad.
