Went out to HR-57 last night with Bryan and our friend Sabina to see a movie called "Vacationing in Afghanistan". Put out by a production company called thefullmonte, it was a small, fifteen minute film about a side trip these two journalists took while in Afghanistan filming the first election. One of them is a reporter and photographer for National Geographic, the other is a cameraman in the same capacity. (That's what I gathered at least) The film was sweet and excellent, a really touching view of the comedic and kind side of Afghans that we usually don't see in the media at large. From what I can tell from the website, thats exactly what they're looking to be - the media at small. You can fund a film and offer a story too - I wish I could send them to India. It was a great way to spend an evening, with a bottle of wine and a room full of curious people.
