Have you ever watched a film or a TV show and thought -- What were they thinking, that would never happen?

Well, in my newest video, Misrepresenting Afghanistan on Screen, I will show you some of those cringe-worthy moments in movies and vlogs about Afghanistan that made me wonder -- What were they thinking?

I’ll walk you through a few scenes from Rock the Kasbah, a Bill Murray movie directed by Barry Levinson, to show how the costume choices and makeup clashed with the reality of how an Afghan girl from a remote village would live and wait for it, wait for it...she also happens to sing Cat Stevens’s song Wild World, in flawless English, in a cave. Don’t get me started.
