If you want to watch a truly powerful, unsettling, deeply moving film (albeit one that is not exactly holiday viewing) track down a copy of 'Osama', the first film made in Afghanistan after the Taliban was ousted.
I won't say anything specific about it (except to note that the title does not refer to Bin Laden.)
It's a short movie, less than ninety minutes, but I guarantee that the impact of it will linger.
Probably one of the most moving and emotional movies I've seen in the last five years.
Don't read the ad copy. Don't scan the summary on the back of the DVD box.
Just watch it.
