Girl Rising, a movie voiced by Meryl Streep, Liam Neeson, Anne Hathaway, Selena Gomez, Kerry Washington and Cate Blanchett, was the subject of a public screening in Dublin recently, as part of a global campaign for female education.
The movie puts a spotlight on the unforgettable stories of nine girls living in the developing world, striving beyond circumstance and overcoming nearly insurmountable odds to achieve their dreams.

Girl Rising is now available on DVD and further information is available here.
