5.0 out of 5 stars Afghanistan through the eyes of a native son
Anwar Hajer's return to his home village, Logar Afghanistan, after more than 25 years of war driven exile is a journey of the heart. See the country and culture through the eyes of a native son. Visit the blue mosque of Ali in Mazar-e-sharif, talk to Afghan war widows selling their wares, visit the boys high school in Kundoz, meet a Pashtun family and village elders. This...

2.0 out of 5 stars English Subtitles Please
If you are looking for a travelogue, this is not it. The background scenery provides a small glimpse of Afghan modernity. There are lengthy Farsi and Dari dialogues by locals sans English subtitles and no explanation of the thrust of the conversation by the moderator, Anwar Hajer. I was looking for authentic information to educate me for a possible humanitarian venture in...

5.0 out of 5 stars Afghanistan through the eyes of a native son, December 2, 2008
This review is from: 16 Days in Afghanistan (DVD)
Anwar Hajer's return to his home village, Logar Afghanistan, after more than 25 years of war driven exile is a journey of the heart. See the country and culture through the eyes of a native son. Visit the blue mosque of Ali in Mazar-e-sharif, talk to Afghan war widows selling their wares, visit the boys high school in Kundoz, meet a Pashtun family and village elders. This is a view of Afghanistan's people and culture that few westerners have ever seen.

This review is from: 16 Days in Afghanistan (DVD)
the videos is a great visual into the Afghani life: a snapshot of it. It is a valuable, enriching source and insight into the culture of Afghnistan and its geopolitics.

This review is from: 16 Days in Afghanistan (DVD)
If you are looking for a travelogue, this is not it. The background scenery provides a small glimpse of Afghan modernity. There are lengthy Farsi and Dari dialogues by locals sans English subtitles and no explanation of the thrust of the conversation by the moderator, Anwar Hajer. I was looking for authentic information to educate me for a possible humanitarian venture in Afghanistan - This did not fulfill that need in the least.
I would like to meet Anwar Hajer, however.
