Enjoy.
This is a fantastic little video involving this American woman trying to rebuild a village that was bombed in the war. It illustrates the impact of bombing on the country, the ascendency of warlords into the reconstruction industries and the subsequent creation of monopolies, sometimes by forceable relocation, and the lawlessness of post-war Afghanistan. Everything from the nightmare of beureacracy and actually 'getting things done' to the wonderfully grumpy village elder provides a great little window into Afghan village life.
