Synopsis:

My Kabul (2006)
Wahid Nazir's My Kabul (2006), a portrait of city life viewed through the eyes of a talkative taxi driver struggling to make ends meet with his rickety jalopy.
Laila (2006)
16 women live at the psychiatric hospital in Kabul. Most have spent almost their entire lives there. Asylum, leisure and educational opportunities are rare. Yet they all know how to find some comfort.
Zoo Ghosts (2010)
The zoo has been rebuilt and is a popular leisure destination for the Kabul people. During the civil war it had been a severe battle field. Does the memory of those times haunt today's zoo?
The Sound of the Footstep (2009)
Ali Abad Rehabilitation Centre in Kabul is a unique experience. Here, disabled people make artificial limbs for other disabled people. Through their struggle to adapt and their life stories, we discover how many Afghan people have suffered from the war and its consequences.
