Far From Afghanistan

synopsis

A tangle of commentaries, fragments, the confusion of war, bombings, explosions and thermo-vision images of the clash of civilizations within the virtual dimension of audiovisual images. A confusion of images from observer planes, the daily record of war and civilian life and forest contemplations. An urgent and intense documentary essay on civilization’s curse of the carefree life, a personal commentary on kidnapping of the filmmaker’s daughter and child abuse.

The owl as a spectre of the night. A hypnotic, tense, and unsettling portrait, with a surgically precise aim and unclear meaning. An ambivalent delirium of viewpoints sanctifying foolish wisdome and impenetrability.
