When movies in the rest of the world other than Afghanistan are increasingly becoming frivolous dealing with lighter aspects of life, it is heartening to see Afghan movies are serious and deal with life and death questions involving faith, politics and human values. The movie and its protagonist, Yakub, have been handled with great feeling and depth by the director, photographer and the principal actor. Salaam to all of them and one only hopes the sad and besieged land of Afghanistan find satisfactory answers to the questions to the long-term benefit and peace of Afghanistan and its people.
Thank you for whoever worked to make this film, it's such an eye opening film. As an Afghan it made me tear up and cry cause we Afghans have suffer enough pain and violence. My beloved country:( hopefully one day I see peace and no explosions in Afghanistan.
@@srisxc812 for sure we do! There's a big Sikh community in Kabul and Bollywood is very famous in Afghanistan. have great relationship with India 🇮🇳 ❤️
I am an ardent admirer of Khaled Hosseini. It was through his books that I came to know Afghan and Kabul. While watching this film, although it was my first time "seeing" Afghan, I felt a certain familiarity with the place. With the streets, the dukkaans, the clothing, the heat and the dust. Love every bit of this film.
This movie is absolutely amazing.The main character (Yaqub) has played his role in such a great fashion that I cannot describe it in words. This is a masterpiece...The sound, filming, light and the abstract portray of the story is absolutely stunning as far as the movies industry is concerned in Afghanistan and possibly "South Asian Countries". As a viewer, I truly admire the efforts you put into making this movie. Hope this on going tragedy in Afghanistan comes to an end one day, especially, before my time is up ...
Masha Allah One of the best Movie. The story very much affected me tears came in my eyes When the father cheated by everyone. Every actor did their job perfectly. This film should get proper recognition.
Afghanistan has a long history of wars, Afghanistan has longer history of peace, culture and tolerance, a fantastic movie that shows Afghanistan at the crossroads. May there be peace and happiness in Afghanistan.
At last a good youtube recommendation. The long wind through the streets of Kabul, the amazing cinematography, the captivating story, the beautiful acting, and the realistic yet heart-wrenching end. What a splendid movie, the most emotional one hour a story could provide. Just wonderful, keep up the good work producers and directors hope to see more from you.
Endless pain! I can't describe what Afghanistan has to go through.This alley is filled with injustices and despotisms. Indescribable. Devastated and Deciphered. Love and prayers from Kashmir.
Nice movie. Conversation between Yaqub and the police officer has a good teaching for us. I'm a muslim from Bangladesh and I confess that commiting suicide attacks is haram (prohibited) in Islam. It will take you directly to hellfire.
For people who believe in reincarnation, it's a bad idea to commit suicide because when you're born again on earth, your life will be in a worse condition than before. For example, if you were living comfortably as a hardworking middle class citizen and you commit suicide because of work, love or religion, in your next life you could be born in poverty or a war torn country, where your struggle will be worse compared to your past life. So committing suicide is like sending yourself to Hell...so very bad idea.
. Lyrical movie. The Protagonist Yaqub has literally lived his role. Simply mind blowing performance . All the other cast members have done equally well. The poignant issue is how a sacred religion with a universal message of Love and Forgiveness have got derailed by vested interests. Salaams to the Producer, Director and all the team members who made it happen. Hope films like this would pave the way towards changing the mindset of people and a new world of Peace would emerge as destined by Almighty God. God Bless. Thanks
What a movie... story told about a father... who is looking his son. Jacob and his Son nae Joseph what a nice story in Koran also in the Book old Testament. Nice
there is so much happening in Afghanistan, so much killing and pain yet people still haven't let go of old sinful habits. May Allah SWT guide them so they can deserve His Freedom and Help
An eye-opening movie. The hero's acting is penetrating and painful. No paradise is a substitute for the minds of parents. Love and peace they experience when they see the smiling of their child.
The ending really crushed me. The way he was so protective over the apples, clinging to the hope that they'd somehow lead him to his son, was heartbreaking. When he finally realized he’d never see him again, that hope shattered. His desperation to give the apples away after that felt like a desperate attempt to hold onto some sense of purpose or gratitude. The emotional shift from holding onto hope to the painful acceptance of loss was devastating and really stayed with me.
A very good movie, directed super good. The after named Yaqub has played the roll beyond the words can ever describe. One can see the real big personality in him and the extremely profound and deep voice of him and way of speaking.
For sure this is a good quality film... I am not sure if people are missing the untold truth to this though. It is a true depiction of all those somewhat educated religious leaders who misinterpret their Quran for their personal agendas while using the poor uneducated people to do sacrifice their lives as they themselves will not do it.
شاید از اولین کار های جدی و قوی سینمای افغانستان باشد که تا امروز دیده ام.بدون شک شما ها میتوانید ابرویی برای هنر هفتم در افغانستان کمایی نمایید. موفقیت های محترم داوود وهاب را استدعا مندم
Very very inspiring heart touching and real movie..this must have given so many awards in my opinion..very real natural locations simple and it looks that we are wandering there..
it's not a movie its a true life in afghanistan. its been a while i haven't seen kabul i miss it a lot . this beautiful country has been destroyed by politics, corruption, injustice and ignorance.
I have watched some Afghan movies and documentaries. Even read a few stories. I feel in brings out the human emotions so realistically. The expressions are etched on the faces and one can see all emotions . And I'm from India
Jannat is so dear to these young Muslim, they don't see the harm they cause their parents and the families of those deceased. What kind of selfishness fills them!
Thank you man! I guess you were as a usa solider in afghanistan and you know somthing about the situation of..anyway we would love everyone who love us!
This film can pass as a documentary in a true sense of tragedy! When a country is at war, the people at the very bottom rung of society suffer the most for the reasons they couldn't fathom.
Afganistan you have my heart. Want to visit at least once in life. Herat and kabul and shor bazar seems places like my own. May Allah make the land peaceful and have his utmost mercy on Afghanistan.
Afghanistan became place of games all devils from world gethered ruin this land my heart bleeding for the people like Yaqub((( there a millons untold stories like that
wow!!! suchhhhh an inspiring movie! is sooo moving that it doesn't compare to any of the hollywood wannabe movies!!! heartbreaking to think this is actually someone's reality!
we are debating big questions today but we have forgotten the very basic right of every soul, to lead atleast a respectful -- if not a comfortable life . Everyone, every soul has to fulfill his own karma but this person to person slavery is the root cause of most evils today . each person wants to control others , and hence the friction
SunhanAllah! Such a heartbreaking story, the agony and suffering of a father who lost his 3 sons is ineffable. What a piece of art.. While I was watching, my pores were all wide-opened as I felt the emotion in every scene of this movie that pierced through my heart, I felt like I'm not really watching a movie but a reality. Something that is very rare in todays' cinematography. The main actor is Applausable, the way he portrayed his role, I'm deeply touched by this movie,. To all my Afgani brothers and sisters, please don't hope, Allah is watching, he knows you're suffering and miseries, In shaa Allah, one day, you'll be free from these pain.
Very intense. A fathers quest for his would be suicide bomber son, Is this what it is like in Afganistan? This is a deeply religious country but at the same time completely corrupt. Wish we could know more about the Movie Director. Very well made movie.

I find this country and it’s people some of the most interesting. This nation of a few million took on the Soviet empire and now the US empire. May Allah raise this nation up again elevate them to where they belong, Inshallah.
Heart touching story... This is the reality.. First they fought jihad against the progressive socialist government. Then they fought jihad against the russians who came to aid the socialist government. Then they fought jihad among themselve. Then again against US. and now this jihad is against common afghans... This war in the name religion nd jihad has destroyed Afghanistan.

Afghan people listen to a lot of Hindi songs I guess. The scene at the restaurant, the song in the television was in Hindi.

Can you please explain to me the ending of the movie? He goes to the Taliban and the leader says take him to his son . Then what happens?
Majid majidi style
This is tragic end sad movie no happy ending
@@RaviKumar-vk2wx He found out that his son was used for suicide bombing and he went mad.
Afghan actors have so much of talent. Its impossible to see it as a movie. Its as if one is seeing live events.
He is Tajik (from Tajikistan). Anyway we are brothers

Heart wrenching movie...the actor who played the role of Yuqub, did complete justice to his character...could really feel him
Yes better than so called Bollywood actors 😉
I pray for my neighbour brave country peace education safety and prosperity .thanks Iran for supporting muslim of the world .bless you all

I am from Bangladesh. It's not just a film, it's a portrayal of Afghanistan. Thanks to the brilliant actors.
Afghan movies are some of the best films in the world. I'm from Papua new Guinea but always Afghan movies
because many of them true story such pain
Wow, I've been to that country. Colorful culture, interesting people. Which part of Papua New Guinea are you from?
Loosing 3 sons would be more than most could bare. Such a dedicated father.
Wow this movie is made so real. It should win an oscar award and the the actors should be paid good for their work.
Great movie... Great actor... I love the way the director brought an apple as a symbol of sadness, cruelty, as well as love....
there is so much happening in Afghanistan, so much killing and pain yet people still haven't let go of old sinful habits. May Allah SWT guide them so they can deserve His Freedom and Help
the main character really played his role in an amazing way.
I cannot believe that this brave heart land..has turned into just blood sand n tears !!
Everything about this movie is just perfect, acting, editing, music, story, direction, everything is simply just perfect
دست مريزاد، بسيار فيلم زيبايي بود. داستان، موزيك، شخصيت پردازي….
اميد داريم به رهايي مردم افغانستان 💛
Very nice movie after long time it felt like I watched a proper movie from Afghanistan it's like a documentary it doesn't look like they acting 👍👍👍👍🌹
this movie is amazing. The humanity and love of a very deep father.
An eye-opening movie. The hero's acting is penetrating and painful.
No paradise is a substitute for the minds of parents. Love and peace they experience when they see the smiling of their child.
this shows how hard and cruel the world are. my heard bleeds for all the lost people .

incredible movie and absolutely fantastic actors. It's hard to believe that poor countries can make great movies, too. Just forword
It's not a movie, it's a white paper on Afghanistan. Great actor
I just watched it and I don't know how do I feel about it, a sad human story.
For sure this is a good quality film... I am not sure if people are missing the untold truth to this though. It is a true depiction of all those somewhat educated religious leaders who misinterpret their Quran for their personal agendas while using the poor uneducated people to do sacrifice their lives as they themselves will not do it.
I got it ,almost reminds me os Christ overturning the tables in the Temple,get it.
They are doing exactly what the koran tells them to do.
I m simply dumbfounded....a means to an end ?
I watched till the ending. So much memories returned to me. I was in Afghanistan in the winter of Feb 1998.

this beautiful country has been destroyed by politics, corruption, injustice and ignorance.
And goats.
@wtnomad I guess if I lived there I would be thinking differently, in end it was good,I wouldn't want some outside force I'm my country.
I hope the good people of Afghanistan will soon have peace.
It really touched my heart. So true, may Allah bless our country permanent peace.
looks like hell... what a devastating story. Dismal
A heartbreaking creation. The honourable actor in the role of Yakub is mindblowing. Thankful to the Director for excellent screenplaying and direction

Great and complete movie with the message, nicely directed and photographed ... main actor Rajab Hussainov amazing
This touched my heart so deeply.....
this movie is about the pain a father feels when he is about to lose his last son.

Very moving film - well filmed, acted and a truly excellent but sad story...
Islam prohibits animal cruelty including dogs....and using them in races/fights is condemned.......

Great Movie and wonderful performance.
Love the effect of the twinkle in Yaqob's eyes.
