View from a Grain of Sand (trailer)

View From a Grain of Sand is a journey through the last 30 years of Afghanistan's history as lived by three Afghan women. Shot over the last three years in Pakistan and Afghanistan, a doctor, teacher and social activist tell how their lives were violently affected by wars of international making and three different regimes in Afghanistan. Yet through all their loss, and the destruction of their homes and country, these women have endured. With courage, conviction and hope they continue to work on improving the lives of the people around them, against all odds, in this brutalized and divided nation.

This excellent film is finally being offered to PBS stations to show in March 2009, to coincide with International Women's Day on March 8. What might help local stations to air the film is if they hear from people who say they want to see it. I have seen it and would suggest you try not to miss it.
