Frontier Innovations invites AVPN members based in New York to an exclusive private screening of “Kicking Balls”, a powerful documentary produced by the Oscar-winning Guneet Monga Kapoor. This screening is anchored by Sikhya Entertainment, Frontier Innovations Foundation (AVPN member based in India) and She Leads Impact Fund, with the support of Equality Now, House of Culture and Product of Culture.
“Kicking Balls” sheds light on the harsh reality of child brides in the Alwar district of Rajasthan, India. In a groundbreaking partnership, Frontier Innovations Foundation, and Sikhya Entertainment have joined forces to use this documentary to shape narratives and drive behavioral change, ultimately aiming for impactful results on the ground. This is the first partnership where impact leaders collaborate with creative leaders to bring positive change and catalyze voices of India.
To make this happen, we are announcing “A Million Voices to Action” campaign to support the next 100 village screenings or 10,000 voices to action. These screenings will drive awareness, shape local narratives, and collect data to engage young girls and women in programs that advance them to higher education and vocation training to open pathways to elevate their incomes and make them independent.
To launch this, they are hosting our next private screening at the Theatre at Regal, New York City on June 17th, where they will showcase the documentary and powerful reactions that we captured from the village screening in UP.
In this context, you are invited to join Changemakers for an evening of collaboration and support for this movement to change the lives of girls and women in India.
