Nasima instantly knows what she wants and that is to surf the waves. She will become the first female surfer in Bangladesh, a place where women don't even swim in public, let alone ride waves. So begins a tremendous journey. By the time Nasima is 14 she is beating the top boys on Bangladesh's young surf circuit, paddling alone against a ferocious current of societal condemnation. It is now that Nasima begins to feel the true power and full weight of conforming to her country's cultural and religious expectations - and although she cannot fight them all, she continues to defy anyone who would keep her off the waves, including her young husband. Standing atop her board, Nasima becomes both a target and an icon as she surfs: new generations of young female surfers see what Nasima has achieved, they watch as she makes her own choices, and speaks her own voice -- can they too surf their way to personal freedom? Inevitably, Nasima's precarious hold on her dreams become ever more tenuous. Now 21, she shoulders impossible pressure. Will Nasima be able to withstand the forces against her? Or will the door she has kicked open be forever slammed shut, not only for her, but also for the next generation? A little girl's dream of riding the waves threatens to change the course of history for an entire nation simply because she was THE MOST FEARLESS. Written by Christine Günther See less
