Três Canções Para Benazir

What a warm and expressive face he has. I was very moved, and loved them both. Wish the film were longer and that we could know how they are doing today. They put faces to my worries during the years we were there and after we left Afghanistan.

This documentary portraits the wounds and the despair in a country where war has been dominated for decades.

But nonetheless, it also sketches beautifully the innocence, love, ambitions, dreams and vulnerability of the young Afghan generation that is overshadowed by the clouds of war..

Heartbreaking but beautifully captured.

So cute, simple, delicate, real, painful, tragic, simple, passionate, real... I would like you to delve a little deeper into Benazir's motivations for joining the Afghan army and "abandoning" his wife and baby son, I know he will in addition to his love for his country and the possibility of giving a little better life to both of them, as he had faced the whole family and community, which did not support him... Beautiful documentary...

While it is important to talk about the situation in Afghanistan, it has so much more potential than what this short film portrayed.

I feel like I missed something crucial, because there is a wide gap that is unfilled. In the end, you get the picture, but it would have been better to witness what had happened.

Overall, this film does not show the grave issues of what it means to live there in these troubled times, hence 6/10.

This is a 22 minute documentary that briefly tells an ordinary love story of an Afghan couple that was displaced by the American invasion. The husband struggles to find work-he tries to join the Afghan army-and various other struggles in life. Despite its shortness the love between the husband and wife come through in stark terms. As does the sheer struggle their lives have been-the film is not political but it's hard to not see the American failure made manifest in this film.

Jesus I hope they are still alive. Americans need to think long and hard before we use the military ever again.
