This is the first time a movie about Afghanistan, created by Afghans and shot entirely in Afghanistan is being considered for the Oscars. I truly enjoyed watching this captivating movie which does not fail to show Afghanistan in it's entirety.
The scenes were simply fantastic and breathtaking. Many of my friends who have recently traveled there say it mimics Afghanistan exactly the way it is today: modern, classy, evolving and closer to freedom than ever before.
The music was beautiful and touching at the same time. Never have I seen music like that in my whole life and this film shows that music is a very big part of the Afghan culture.
The acting was superb, particularly that of the young gal playing the bride to be. There were parts in the film which were also quite funny and made the theater burst into laughter---nicely done.
Overall, I gave this film a 10/10 because so much was risked in making this film and despite every challenge faced by the crew, they managed to finish it up and give Afghanistan something to be proud of: That is, the world will know that Afghans are more than uncivilized people living in caves---
