The distruction of the giant buddahs in Bamyian in Afghanistan is his starting point, but during the movie he discovers many more stories connected to this tragic loss of cultural heritage! |

| User ReviewTim MFantastic score and everything but the "Dear Nellifer" was annoying and the subject matter is kinda boring. It felt drawn out, could have made it fit into and hour. |
| User ReviewSofanit MThe premises of the documentary is the giant Buddha statue in Afghanistan that was destroyed by the Taliban.But the intertwined stories of society, nations, individual people and their reaction & perspectives makes this documentary rich in grasping the human race and its complexity. |
