Shot on the border of Iran and Afghanistan, Kandahar is a story of a young female journalist named Nafas who escaped Afghanistan with her family but must return and race against time in an attempt to rescue her sister in the Taliban-controlled city of Kandahar.
The film is inspired by the real-life experience of actress Niloufar Pazira, who plays Nafas. In 1989, she fled Afghanistan and later received a similar letter not from a sister, but from a long-time friend who wanted to end her life.
The film does not flow and is in need of better dialog
