Globe Nominations: Taliban-Controlled Afghanistan and Phone Interview

globe nominations: I'm not travelling to the States because of basically the Islamic travel ban, Ellis said in a phone interview after the Golden Globe nominations were announced, according to The Chronicle Herald. I write about refugees often in Islamic countries and it would make no sense for me to be able to go to this kind of a celebration when they can't get in. While Ellis is hopeful the nomination for best animated film will spark discussions about the story of a young girl and her family under Taliban-controlled Afghanistan in 2001, she doesn't plan to go to the Jan. 7 gala in Los Angeles due to President Donald Trump's ban on travel to the U.S. by citizens of mostly Muslim nations. The Trump administration has argued the travel restrictions are not anti-Muslim, but are necessary for national security. The important part is that the film has been nominated, people are seeing it and people are going to talk about it, and that's fantastic. But that's so unimportant, Ellis said of her personal opposition to the ban. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
