10 must-watch documentaries on post-war Afghanistan

RTD’s documentaries on post-war Afghanistan show you how this south-central Asian country is coping despite nearly 40 years of conflict. See how culture is beginning to make a comeback in the form of fashion and film, as well as both traditional and popular music, in spite of death threats from Islamic fundamentalists. Or, you can meet a local martial artist inspiring a generation of fighters as the ‘new Bruce Lee’. You can also see how some Afghan women are breaking gender barriers in this patriarchal society, while others resort to ‘dancing’ for men.
