DOCUMENTARY: LIFTING THE VEIL
Directed by Carla Garapedian
YEAR 2002
50 MINS, Color
This award-winning documentary, broadcast on British television in 2002,
presented a stark image of Taliban justice: the execution of a
35-year-old mother before 30,000 spectators at an Afghani sports arena.
Trying to uncover the full story behind the horror, filmmaker Carla
Garapedian went to Afghanistan shortly after the fall of the Taliban. In
LIFTING THE VEIL, Garapedian reveals the disturbing details of one case
of Islamic fundamentalist justice and evidence that, in Afghanistan,
much still remains unchanged. TV14 (AC, V)
