Afghanistan. Hardly the easiest place in the world for a teenage girl to become a pop star. But that’s exactly what 19 year old Mariam is trying to do.
Under the Taliban, all forms of music were banned. “In Afghanistan, for a woman to become a singer is like committing suicide”, states one Afghan singer.
