If you've read khaled Hosseini bestsellers A thousand splendid suns or Kite Runner, than the documentary film THE RETURN by Joost Verhey is a must see. THE RETURN takes you back to the Afghan refugee camps in 1989/1990. The extend of the refugee problem was simply staggering, yet hardly noticed by the western world. As a one-off situation director and anthropologist Verhey visited several Afghan refugee camps, including Jalozai, in 1989, sketching the problems of those returning and those trying to rebuild an existence elsewhere.
