  First, I'd like to say this film was amazing. I saw it on DVD where I could listen to Nafas' commentary and see a background W-5 segment on her and her (mostly) autobiographical journey. This was an eye opening foray in to the 'eye of the storm', as they say. But to counter those who were angered by the negative portrayal of Afghanistan, I would like to point out that Nafas and her family WERE from Afghanistan and she DID go back as in the movie (although it wasn't for her sister but her friend) She did have some of the difficulties depicted. I know that Islam at its soul is a good, peaceful faith (not mine, though) , but as in every religion, for every good, there is a bad, every ying has its yang. Unfortunately, much of this bad seems to come from this area (Taliban) This is a story of desperate people in desperate times and I think it was very even-handed in its telling. I urge you, if you can, to see the DVD and get the background on this brave woman and her wonderful film.
(9/10)
