Chasing Freedom is based on a true story that illustrates the oppressive nature of the Taliban and the devastating effect they had on the citizens of Afghanistan. Set before the brutal regime was brought to their knees, this movie follows young lawyer Libby (Lewis) as she attempts to help an Afghani woman seeking sanctuary in the U.S. The woman arrives in the country seeking political asylum, but without a passport or any official papers it seems she will have to return to her native country; to make matters worse, a return will mean that she will meet her death at the hands of her oppressors.
