Description

The mostly true story of five unfinished films from the Communist era in Afghanistan (1978–1991), What We Left Unfinished reunites newly restored footage from lost fiction films with the people who went to crazy lengths to make them, evoking a time when films were weapons, filmmakers became targets, and the dreams of political regimes merged with the stories told onscreen. Directed by Mariam Ghani.
