jcravens42 I worked in Afghanistan for just six months in 2007, and I've watched so many documentaries and films, and read so many books, about the country and the situation there, and most fall short in showing how complex it is, especially for women and girls - at least in my opinion. This documentary nails it - it presents the people and their thoughts, without comment from the filmmakers. It's a mix of heartlessness and hope - which is exactly what living in Afghanistan is like. You can ask "why" all you want - but you need to know that is how it is, for whatever reason, and see for yourself have brave Afghan women circumvent the culture to help the women of their country.
