Full Plot Details

Jung means war in the Dari language. It is a word laden with meaning for the Afghan people. The war has shaped their day-to-day living, becoming a brutal normality, even mistaken for the essence of life itself. Jung is a narrative documentary which follows the human and professional adventure of its protagonists. A war surgeon has an important project: To set up an emergency hospital for civilian war victims. He is accompanied by an old war correspondent who has been reporting from Afghanistan ever since the Soviet invasion. The first act is the survey mission carried out in February 1999. The city of Charikar is chosen as the designated site for the construction of the hospital. But in July 1999 a sudden Taliban attack forces the Mujaheddin army and the civil population to a desperate escape. An emergency site is found in the village of Anobah, in the Panshir Valley. The third act of the account (February-May 2000) bears witness to the life of the hospital with its daily tragedies, in the hope of a possible alternative to the madness of war.

Movie Reviews

San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by Mick LaSalleFew who see it will be sorry. Sometimes being humane means not being squeamish.
San Francisco Examiner - 9/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonMay not make you feel better, exactly, but it will enlighten you, expand your thought process, and lift you out of the Hollywood Matrix that prefers to batter you with military recruitment films disguised as Saving Private Ryan and the like.
The New York Times - 9/10 by Dana StevensEssential viewing for anyone who desires a sense of the finer human grain of a war that now commands the attention of the world as never before.
TV Guide Magazine - 8/10 by Ken FoxThe film is informative, often grisly and undeniably riveting.
New York Daily News - 8/10 by Elizabeth WeitzmanIt is an excruciating experience. But then, it would have to be. We're watching the distilled essence of war.
New York Post - 6/10 by Jonathan ForemanLike "Beneath the Veil," it gives a human face to those who have suffered from the Taliban's tremendous cruelty, and those who have been maimed in the war to end their rule.
Film Threat - 6/10 by Phil HallWhile the film is admittedly imperfect, it nonetheless deserves to be seen by all Americans to provide a clear understanding of what kind of a country we are currently at war within.
User Review - 8/10 by Private USaw this at the cinema and thought it was fascinating insight into Afghanistan.
