I finally was able to see this movie this weekend. it came out on October 1st, 1999 to critical reviews and acclaim, but not much box office appeal. That seems to be the case for movies that try to tell a side of Middle East that most Americans do not see by just watching CNN or their local news. This story was compelling, heartful, and eye-opening to me. Much like the movies Charlie Wilson's War, the Kingdom, and the book The Kite Runner , it enlightens you to situations over there you may not have been aware of. And since knowledge is at least enlightenment, if not power, i recommend this movie to those who might be looking for such things....
