Kandahar Summary Commentary By Actress Nelofer Pazira This Epic Tale Of Hope & Courage As An Afghan Born Journalist Returns To Her Homeland In A Desperate Attempt To Reach Her Sister. Studio: New Yorker Films Video Release Date: 05/13/2003 Run Time: 85 Minutes Rating: Nr Director: Mohsen Makhmalbaf

The prolific Iranian director Mohsen Makhmalbaf (Gabbeh) had one of his most visible international successes with this haunting, open-ended drama. Set (and shot) during the Taliban era, it follows an Afghani-Canadian woman as she attempts to enter Afghanistan in search of a despondent sister. Since it is illegal for a woman to travel alone, she must rely on the kindness--or curiosity--of strangers, including a scrappy boy and a mysterious American doctor. The woman playing the lead role had earlier contacted Makhmalbaf about a similar real-life search, which prompted him to write the screenplay. The director doesn't really tell her story so much as he unveils a way of life: in the desert, we meet land-mine victims, Red Cross volunteers caught in a Catch-22 world, and women smothered in head-to-foot burkas. The portrait is one of oppression, but also of people furiously trying to get by. --Robert Horton
