Women and the Guards
2009, LV. Directed by Una Celma.
A portrait of female prisoners and their guards in Afghanistan, showing parallel lives - the lives of the female prisoners, the life of the warden of the women’s prison, as well as the foreign advisors. The film shows the interplay of various levels of imprisonment. One level is the women themselves, the other is the strict and repressive rules for Afghan women, and yet another is the security threat of the outside world perceived by the advisors.
