A truck depot is about the last place on earth you'd expect to find an art scene. But in Pakistan, the tradition of painting and detailing trucks adds glitter and glamour to the transport business, and offers a colorful distraction in a country tormented by war and political instability.

This report is part of Pulitzer Center-sponsored project ""Pakistan: Hearts and Minds" (http://bit.ly/ziGW0W).

  • The guy spoke perfect English @ 1:30, why did they put English subtitles underneath. LoL, it reminds of a video on the youtube, where the guy being interviewed, an Iraqi, gets mad, at why the subtitles when he speaks English, and not when someone else who hardly speaks English, he can not see the subtitles ofcourse, but its a funny vid on youtube.

  • Good video. The Art on wheels, it provides the relief for the passing by public on foot or in cars

    Beautiful
