SubscribeA while back I received an email from a film maker about an upcoming documentary on Afghanistan. The film is almost completed and there’s a trailer up for it. Below is a short blurb about the film from Anthony Hornus, the man behind the project:
…in Feb. and March of 2008 I traveled with a cameraman to Afghanistan to film the first in our series of “Outside the Wire” documentaries. It is entitled “Outside the Wire: The Forgotten Children of Afghanistan.” Certainly crushing poverty, years of war and oppression and lack of basic human needs (water, sanitary conditions) makes Afghanistan a land of despair.
But, as my modernist-thinking Afghan friends believe, there is now at least a strong new sense of hope. I got sick and tired of hearing about the “Bad Americans,” blah, blah, blah by the far left. We’re not doing an infomercial for the military, but with the grace of God we’re going to balance the story of good vs. evil, and helping those who can’t help themselves.
The entire key to the success in Afghanistan-Pakistan region is education of the young toward tolerance, understanding and respect for all faiths and cultures and empowering them with basic aid, school supplies and economic opportunities, while providing security from the bad guys.
I’m excited to see the end result which should be out this fall or winter. Keep an eye on the project as there will be other films to come in the Outside the Wire series.
