The Network trailer: bringing television back to Afghanistan

I love documentaries like this one, that make you consider a new aspect of a messy, complicated situation that you hadn’t ever thought about before, and then you realize that that situation — in this case, the collapse of Afghanistan as a functioning society — is even messier and more complicated than you first believed.

I saw this film at Sheffield Doc/Fest, and it’s fantastic. Will try to get to a review asap.

share and enjoy

Looks very good. Hope the shots are longer in the real thing.
