62’/ Produced by Fourlab / Distributed by Cinecitta Luce/2009
Twenty-five-year-old Humaira lived through the Taliban regime, but she now puts on lipstick for the camera, in a self confident way. She studied journalism and started her own radio station, Radio Sahar, back in 2003. Humaira will take us into her world that doesn’t just reflect the current representation of Afghanistan but also powerfully conveyshumour, hopes and poetry.
