Emma Watson and Malala Yousafzai met for the Into Film Festival premiere of the big screen biopic “He Named Me Malala”.
Emma conducted a live Q&A with Malala as part of the event, with the interview screened in over 80 cinemas around the UK. The film festival kicked off with the live event in Birmingham.
Over 10,000 school children and teachers in 80 cinemas across the UK were treated to a live stream of Emma and Malala’s chat following the ‘Pupils’ Premiere’ of new film He Named Me Malala.
The Q & A opened with a conversation between the two young women which covered a variety of topics including education and identifying with feminism, while Emma also asked Malala questions submitted by students and teachers across the UK.
The full interview can be found on Emma’s Facebook page.
He Named Me Malala, directed by acclaimed documentary filmmaker Davis Guggenheim, is an intimate portrait of Malala, who was targeted by the Taliban and severely wounded by a gunshot when returning home on her school bus in Pakistan’s Swat Valley.

On October 9th, Emma Watson was doing a live Q & A session with fans when a Twitter user asked the “Harry Potter” actress a tough question to answer for someone who doesn’t know the societal issues women are facing today.
In response to the question, Emma Watson Tweeted the screen cap below, (perhaps because Twitter’s character limit couldn’t help her voice out completely).
