The catalogue in 3D

The film shelves have a room of their own that you can walk around in.

Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

What happens

Kabul skønhed er en dansk oplysningsfilm fra 2005, der er instrueret af Erna Andersen og Esben Hansen. Kvindelige iværksættere i et mandsdomineret samfund? Filmen afslører en kvindeverden, som klarer sig fint trods svære odds mod sig. Er det fordi der ved ske en positiv udvikling for kvinderne i Afghanistan, eller er det fordi skønhedssalonen gør kvinder smukke til et forestående bryllup med stor prestige for både mand og kvinde, og deres familier?
