Hollywoodgate
Immediately after the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan, the Taliban take over a former CIA base, Hollywoodgate. They seize the weapons, aeroplanes, and everyday items left behind by the Americans. For over a year, film-maker Ibrahim Nash'at documents developments, providing deep insights into the Taliban’s rise to power. Nash'at skillfully reveals the power and propaganda games being played by the Taliban.
