This is the story of an extraordinary woman who's challenging Pakistan's attitude towards gender just by sitting behind the wheel of her cab. Zahida is the only female taxi driver in Pakistan.
The documentary will explore Islamabad from Zahida’s point of view but also from the perspective of her passengers, a cross section of modern Islamabad, from the rich - politicians and recently returned immigrants – to the majority who are just getting by.
Together we will watch Zahida’s story unfold and find out what does it take to break into a male dominated profession. It was a tough journey for Zahida but now she became an iconic figure in the community, treated with respect even by the traditionalist tribes of North Pakistan. Recently she got remarried and has a 5 year old daughter. Let’s discover if Zahida’s new beginnings could signal a new beginning for Pakistan.
