Built in Kabul
Built in Kabul is a 6-minute film about a side of Afghanistan you haven?t seen.
There is an unfamiliar sound in Kabul-it is the clink of metal hitting metal. It is hard not to notice the young men who are eagerly congregating in small rooms.
No, these men are not gathering to form new terrorism cells, but to pump iron?
Bodybuilding has become enormously popular among hundreds young men in this war torn country. There are over fifty new weight lifting gyms in Kabul alone, using old weights from the Soviet invasion in the 70?s.
There are ten-foot tall handmade billboards of Arnold Schwarzenegger?s muscular image overlooking the city as it struggles to rebuild its citizens and itself as a country.
Shoib Satar is one of these young bodybuilders who sees this sport as a way Afghans can better themselves.
As young men become ?strong? and ?independent? so does their country. Shoib has great hopes for the future of his people and his home in the new film by Brent E. Huffman entitled Built in Kabul.
