Sohaila, Zahra and Zeinab train every day. Their dream is to become professional fighters and to show the world that all people are equal. We spent a week in and around the Malakasa refugee camp outside Athens getting to know these inspirational young Afghan women, documenting their gruelling commitment to fitness and their raging passion for equality.
