Sa mahabang panahon, kilala ang Butig bilang bayan na minsang nasadlak sa kaguluhan. Ngunit sa likod ng mga sugat ng nakaraan, unti-unting umuusbong ang mga kwento ng muling pagbangon, pagkakaisa, at pag-asa ng mga mamamayan.

Panoorin ang “𝙇𝙖𝙠𝙗𝙖𝙮 𝘽𝙪𝙩𝙞𝙜”, isang dokumentaryong sumasalamin sa tunay na mukha ng bayan—ang mga taong patuloy na nagsisikap itaguyod ang kapayapaan at kaunlaran sa kabila ng mga hamon ng kasaysayan.

Hijab has long been misunderstood, misrepresented, and reduced to harmful stereotypes of oppression and extremism.

In truth, the hijab is about choice and the freedom of Muslim women to define their dignity, values, and self-worth on their own terms.

Across the world, hijabi women excel in science, politics, sports, activism, and the arts proving that what you wear does not limit who you can be.
