Afghan

[PinebrookPictures]

Incredible. 

[Mortaza94]

@khorasanculture There is a very small number of afghan arabs in our country though, who speak arabic. So mind your language.

[janansparlai]

thats exactly why nobody likes white people or americans.

[tz0uhalem]

@janansparlai many ppl do. they all wanna come and live with us xD jk but why are you even watching a movie like this when youre just as bad as white racist trash.and what about his white friend?

i thought it was a great movie. thats exactly the way you have to deal with stuff like that(if you wanna deal with it at all).i liked the turning it into "welcome home arab" best. thats what im gonna do from now on whenever i come across graffitis like that

[Nezraj]

Saw this over the weekend (2/19/2011) at the Beloit International Film Festival (BIFF) in Wisconsin. Good stuff. Love the acting, too. Just wanted to say I appreciated it as a fellow film maker.

[everlot1000]

thank you so much for making this video... youre fellow arabs appreciate it! including me !

[MegaSHamed]

The information of this video is not correct, we afghans don't consider ourselves arabs , it is cheap as information same time you acting very smart same thing you come up with something so stupid I am sorry for expression I will try to send my reports to youtube admins for this kind of bullshit videos, because you are violating afghan nation by giving fake information and words from them, those that liked this video are also got chicken brains I am sure.

[everlot1000]

@MegaSHamed this is in no way the point of the video

[cbfw86]

i loved this. so many emotions. such a rich piece. bravo.

[aidanlister]

This was really great, thank you.

[scoodles007]

I thought it was cool but I hated the music it made it seem more sad

[turboej1driver]

this needs way more views

RESPECT!

Pardis...I'll give you $30 for the 100% Jasmine tester bottle.....Its just a tester....The unopened bottles are not even 100% Jasmine...its false advertising. Just give it to me.....$30 man....

[jakematild]

@akropiss am schooling you on some INFO - and this guy looks nothing Afghan, Afghans have NOTHING to do with terrorism, 9-11, ben landin or anything else. They are ARYAN, they could care less - and trying to make a film about them having something to do with it is SO IDIOTIC! So lame, MIS-INFORMED!

Do a favor and don't write me again, thanks.

[sckvevrbdy]

Excellent dialogue, sensitive direction, compelling topic. Only complaint -- music overpowers dialogue. Maybe rebalance for vocal presence.

BTW, I didn't get the "ground" shot. What was I supposed to see?

Nice job. Congratulations, Pardis.

[jakematild]

The PROBLEM with you and ya'll is that you don't understand that AFGHANS are the ORIGINAL ARYANS! Got it! We don't give a dam what you think, we are the true original Aryans, so why do you make these silly films...we are not Arab or Jew or Christian or whatever the freak else - we are ARYAN. We gave birth to most of the Europeans. Silly, I didn't even watch it.

[CivileFilms]

@jakematild Afghan is not a religion. Why are you listing off religions, you can be afghan and be a christian?

[YouGottaFaxe]

@jakematild

That's great buddy, but the film is about how the world sees people of middle eastern origin. Joe schlub the xenophobe doesn't know the difference between an Afghan and an Iranian.

[meloveanna]

Racism will never go away. I think that if we embraced our differences, instead of forcing this illusion of equality, things wouldn't be as bad as they are. Sorry about the brick.

[remmytemmy]

This made me sad. It was hard for me to watch, to be honest. If someone did something to me like this, I wouldn't be able to just laugh it off. It's hard for me to imagine the amount of people who are victims of hate crimes. Sure, people may call me names at school and tease. But it can break you down. Strong people learn to swim through that. Bravo to you Mr. Parker. and please continue to make such brilliant shorts. Love 10:00 =]

[afghaniesoldier]

Afghanistan was a great empire and country

but people just don't get it

i wonder who was the reason to make people misunderstand the afghan character

[aghajaun]

@afghaniesoldier

yes , i miss the old days in afghanistan till 1989

[IslamicGoldenAge]

Well done

[joverm]

[javidsharif]

[nitroklop]

I remember seeing this last year in the theatre during the Atlantic Film Festival. You did a great job. I love the part at the end when he says something about not having enough money to buy a BMW in french, but the subtitles say "I have a small penis" pure genious!

[avista100]

[peege1313]

[theholydevil3000]

" i didn't have enough money for a bmw "

[flippy910]

[pardisparker]

It was composed for the film by Mathieu Benoit and performed by Mathieu Benoit and Tony Noddin. Pretty great, eh?
