Bakhtay is a six-year-old girl living in a cave in Bamiyan, the town in Afghanistan where the Taliban destroyed the giant Buddha statues in 2001. She desperately wants to go to school to learn some jokes, but she has many hurdles to overcome - from buying the right equipment to avoiding the bully boys playing at being Taliban.
