Children of the Taliban plot

Life in Afghanistan has changed dramatically since American troops withdrew and the Taliban came to power. The documentary tells the story of four young children in Kabul. The girls, Shoukria and Arezo, are among the hundreds of thousands of Afghan children who have to work to support their families. The boys, Abdullah and Eshahnullah, are the sons of high-ranking Taliban members. These children have had to grow up very quickly, and although their lives are very different, they also have a lot in common. Through their eyes we get a remarkable glimpse into the soul of Afghanistan and learn what challenges the future holds.
