Heart of Asia (Afghanistan)

Heart of Asia (Afghanistan) (1929)

Сердце Азии (Афганистан)

This documentary offered tantalizing glimpses of Afghanistan, which in 1929 was still one of the few heavily-populated areas in the world where the residents continued to live as they did in the Middle Ages. A progressive new leader named Amnullah tries to "Westernize" the country, meeting plenty of resistance from native reactionaries.
