I saw this film last night on DVD. I enjoyed it, but I think it will resonate more with me as time goes by and I get to think about it some more. Because it's a documentary, I found it to be a bit dry in terms of the "entertainment" factor. But in terms of the topic and country being covered, this was extremely interesting, and at times, sad to watch. Sad because there are glimpses on what Kabul was once like prior to the Russians invading in terms of more freedoms, and the struggle that women now have in Afghanistan since the Taliban.
As someone who also watches American Idol, it was fun to see how the show looks in another country, and it is remarkably similar. The Afghans shown in this movie showed great spirit and resilience, and I wish that country the best moving forward.
