A Journey in Afghanistan. After two decades of chaos and destruction, a country searches for its identity. Eight places. A cinematic encounter with people and their realities. A nightclub, a school, a hospital, a taxi – the people there talk about daily life in Afghanistan beyond the war and the Taliban. The director observes people and incidents on his journey, starting in the northern province and eventually reaching the capital Kabul. The result is a mosaic, presented as episodes leaving out West-European commentary.

The author of this film hitchhiked from Tarragona to Pakistan with the object of shooting a film in the so-called “Islamic” countries, and doing so in a fashion that is different from the usual media stereotypes that pigeon-hole women. For thirteen months, she travelled and lived in Bosnia, Turkey, Iran, Afghanistan and Pakistan. Unveiled Views portrays the lives of five women she met during her sojourn. These women have chosen art as a way to express themselves: public performances, cinema, music, poetry and dance are the tools they use -each in her own particular way- to unveil a personal vision of life.
