“A clear-eyed and confrontational portrait” (Indiewire)

From Academy Award–nominated director James Longley (Iraq in Fragments), this stirring and beautiful documentary traces the lives of young students and their teachers at a school in the old city of Kabul. Interweaving the modern history of Afghanistan with present-day portraits, Angels Are Made of Light offers an intimate, gorgeously presented vision of a society living in the shadow of war.
