    Only one disappointment about this interesting documentary: many questions this lady asked to the Afghanistan’s were answered only in their own language leaving us wondering what they said. It would have given us more of an understanding of their daily lives if interpreted in English.

You can tell from her face, she has no ideas, while she’s just relying on her laurels(connections) of before Talib times. Great travel infomercial nonetheless

    I was in this area during 2003-2004, 99% percent of the people just wanted to live their life in peace, could care less about the U.S forces or the taliban. The Afghans I encounter were really decent, made this awesome 🐐 stew and Chai tea that to this day is the best drink I've ever had. It's really crazy to walk through some of these places and not much has changed since the days of Alexander.

I think this version (from the Tracks channel) is a bit of a bootlegged copy, missing features from the BBC original, with subtitles. Also there are parts with sound mixing loss, i.e., Lyse's voice can't be heard well above surrounding noise. But I'm glad this is available, now more than ever, a valuable document.

    I am interested in Lyse herself. Could we have a bit of her history?
