In his new film, James Longley, the director of Oscar-nominated film Iraq in Fragments, which was presented at the Festival, turns his camera to the pre-teen students of Kabul’s Daqiqi Balkhi School, specifically to three brothers: Sohrab, Roustem, and Yaldash. Longley concentrates on the daily routines of these young minds, who were born into a reality shaped with long-lasting war, conflict and poverty, and have to endure the rigors of a war that they didn’t partake in, and how they still continue to dream and fight for a better future in the face of all sorts of adversity. Angels Are Made of Light portrays both a human tragedy and the triumph of the human spirit through the innocent persistence of children.

This film was a Meetings on the Bridge participant.
