Leaving Neverland creator Dan Reed and Four Hours at the Capitol director Jamie Roberts have opened up about obtaining footage from the Taliban for upcoming HBO/BBC feature doc Escape from Kabul Airport.
Unveiled at last month’s Edinburgh TV Festival, the landmark doc, which launches later today on HBO and BBC Two, tells the inside story of a monumental 18 days last August when the U.S. withdrew troops from Afghanistan and evacuated thousands of citizens from Afghanistan’s capital Kabul.
Reed and Roberts were finishing Four Hours at the Capitol about the January 6 riots when they saw images from the airport evacuation and immediately knew this was to be the subject of their next film, according to the decorated pair, who spoke with Deadline in early September.
Roberts said it took “several approaches” to get the Taliban on side and access never-before-seen footage shot by Afghanistan’s now-ruling power as the U.

Jamie Roberts’ terse, painfully precise documentary “Escape from Kabul” zooms right in on one episode—the massive last-minute airlift of Afghans and remaining American personnel from Kabul in August 2021—and never looks away, even when you might wish that it did. It’s a close-quarters kind of war film that moves in tight and leaves little room to breathe. This seems an appropriate stylistic decision for a movie that is mainly about tens of thousands of people trying to escape a country as it is being reclaimed by medieval fanatics whose promises of equitable treatment were not widely believed.

"Keep the runway open at all costs." HBO has revealed an official trailer for a documentary titled Escape From Kabul, made by investigative doc filmmaker Jamie Roberts. It's one of the first films about what happened in Kabul when American forces pulled out of the country as the Taliban took over. With never-before-seen archival footage of the historic confrontation at Kabul airport in August, from the US withdrawal of its troops from Afghanistan through the subsequent evacuation of Afghan citizens. After 20 years of war between the Taliban, and NATO forces, a small force of U.S. Marines were deployed to Kabul in August 2021 intending to evacuate U.S. citizens and “at risk” Afghans who had cooperated with the Americans and Allied Forces during the conflict. But plans quickly changed. This looks utterly intense & harrowing, a remarkable look at how the world is destabilizing. And they even have interviews with a few Taliban leaders in this doc?...
