The Rimowa is more than what she would bring for a 2 day trip to Pakistan.  This is just one stop in a longer trip.

Pir Bakhsh aka Pearl Chandev is a local resident and singer. According to him, he has not seen any movie of Angelina Jolie nor was he familiar with her. She was only told that she is a great actress.

According to Perel, he was told by the International Rescue Committee (IRC) Red Crescent that the guests were coming because he was a local and knew the affected areas so he would stay with the guests, which led him to meet Angelina

United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and American actress Angelina Jolie visited three villages during her brief visit to the flood-hit Dadu district in Sindh.

In the boat along with Pearl Chandio and Angelina Jolie was Shabnam Baloch, head of IRC in Pakistan, who hails from Sindh. She was Angelina Jolie's translator.

According to Pearl Chandio, they visited the villages of Ibrahim Chandio, Khair Mohammad Mughiri and Ali Mohammad Mughiri. There he got down from the boat and went and talked with the women.

Angelina asked the women what do you guys need? So these women told them that they have difficulty in eating and drinking, there is water all around and patients also have to pass through it.

With the help of a translator, she assured the women that she would send people

According to Pearl Chandev, the heat was intense and the time was short, which the security guards repeatedly reminded Angelina, but she stopped to talk to the women.

September 19, 2022 — International humanitarian Angelina Jolie is visiting Pakistan to support communities affected by the devastating floods. Heavy rains and floods across the country have impacted 33 million people and submerged one third of the country under water. Ms Jolie is visiting to witness and gain understanding of the situation, and to hear from people affected directly about their needs, and about steps to prevent such suffering in the future.

Ms Jolie, who previously visited victims of the 2010 floods in Pakistan, and the 2005 earthquake, will visit the IRC’s emergency response operations and local organisations assisting displaced people including Afghan refugees.

Diane von Furstenberg: Leave Angelina Jolie and her leg alone

Angdiane2
If Angelina Jolie wants anyone in her corner after that business about her leg at last Sunday's Academy Awards, it's Diane von Furstenberg.
The Ministry caught up with the legendary designer in Los Angeles on Saturday, where she said she doesn't quite understand why Angie and her limbs are under attack.
"She's always so gorgeous," Von Furstenberg said at the launch of GapKids + DVF, her chic children's line for the retailer. "I don't know why, but I think people are just not nice to her."
And as a woman who has just created a collection for children, she's not having any of this Angelina teasing.
At shopping mecca The Grove, Von Furstenberg turned up to greet celeb fans like a pregnant Molly Sims, Busy Philipps, Alyson Hannigan, Tiffani Thiessen and "Entourage" star Constance Zimmer.
Not your normal petting zoo fare, the DVF bunch kept it glamorous with a mini-runway for kids to strut down and a makeup station, and passed snacks like vegetable cut-outs and mac 'n' cheese.
Motherhood being another job Angelina is highly associated with, we asked Von Furstenberg the value of raising children with their own unique stlye, like Jolie and Brad Pitt's Shiloh.
"The only thing that matters is that your kids are happy with who they are," Von Furstenberg said.

Saving Face tells the story of women who have had their faces disfigured by acid attacks in Pakistan. Below is the transcript of the q&a (courtesy of AMPAS) with Obaid-Chinoy and Junge held in the pressroom backstage.
A. (Junge) This is only a third less nerve racking than being up there. But still all the same. I think it's important to note that this is the first Pakistani director nominated and now winning an Academy Award, which is really worth, yeah, applaud. Thank you.
Q. Hi. I am wondering other than, of course, winning, what has been the most exciting thing about your night so far, and what is next for you?
A. (Junge) Well, we just stepped off the stage, and the first two people we encountered were … What were their names?
A. (Obaid-Chinoy) Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. And because Angelina has a connection to Pakistan, because she's been there, it was really nice to chat with her about that and give her a copy of our film.



A Letter from the Leading Actor of "A Separation" to Asghar Farhadi



When Brad Pitt said the night the Golden Globe ceremony that he had watched The Separation on DVD [with Angelina Jolie] and in the middle of the opening sequence at court, Angelina paused the film after seeing the fight between the couple aqnd was very touched.  They waited for some time and watched it again, I became more confident. When Angelina Jolie asked you about your next film and plainly said she wanted to be in your film and when you answered her by saying that your leading actress would be speaking French and she said that she could learn French by the time you start making your film, I simply felt proud.
