<p>Three years after the Taliban returned to power in Afghanistan, Apple is releasing a powerful documentary detailing the heartbreaking impact the Taliban have had on women.</p>
<p>The upcoming film <em>Bread and roses </em>follows three women – Dr. Zahra Mohammadi, Sharifa Mowahedzada and Taranom Seyedi – “as they struggle to regain their autonomy,” according to an official synopsis.</p>
<p>In the film’s trailer, shared exclusively with PEOPLE, the group of women adjust to their new reality after the Taliban took over Kabul in August 2021.</p>
<p>“After my engagement party, people were praying, normal life was returning. And then suddenly, lightning struck,” says one woman.</p>

Emotional voiceovers in the trailer explain that the Taliban have restricted women’s rights and that they can no longer study or “go out without a chaperone.” A woman, Dr. Mohammadi, is forced to leave her clinic because of the Taliban regime.

“I am recording this video so that if something happens to me, you will know that the Islamic Emirate is responsible,” a woman says directly into the camera.
