An accurate and honest documentary from Danish filmmaker Andreas Mol Dalsgaard about body building in Afghanistan. It follows a group of hopeful body builders from Kabul to Mr. Asia Competition in Dubai.Despite the familiarity of war ravaged Afghanistan and total absence of women, the filmmaker shows a clear focus with compelling characters and depiction, even the subtitles are accurate. Lately it seemed that any foreigner with a camera could get a documentary made in Afghanistan. Though I had my reservations about this one, I was pleasantly surprised but my heart broken that not much has changed in Afghanistan. YRCinema's coverage of AFI Fest 2007.
