What happens when your own internal war mirrors the one raging outside? In 2015, Emma Ayres-a successful Australian radio presenter drowning in depression and unresolved gender dysphoria-made a decision that seemed almost absurd: she moved to Kabul to teach cello. Not despite the danger, but perhaps because of it. Afghanistan had been stripped of its musical soul in 1996 when the Taliban banned all non-religious music, destroyed instruments, and forced musicians underground. Nearly two decades later, the Afghanistan National Institute of Music emerged as an act of cultural rebellion, reserving half its spots for disadvantaged children and, most radically, welcoming girls. What Emma discovered there wasn't just a school-it was a laboratory where music became medicine, where broken instruments mirrored broken lives, and where the simple act of drawing a bow across strings became an assertion of existence itself.
