00:07Nowhere else is there so much warmth, strength, and courage.
00:43All clear.
00:49Hey, watch your goddamn fire!
01:01How are you doing?
01:04Can you hear me? Hand grenades. The Taliban were behind the wall.
01:09You were lucky. Two soldiers are dead.
01:13You two, pick her up.
01:30Oh!
01:37Telephone ringer
01:39Telephone ringer
01:48Hello?
01:53I'm perfectly fine. I'm okay.
01:57I'll send the pictures right away.
02:02That's just a bad connection.
02:05Yes.
02:07Take care.
02:10It also got a scratch on its head.
02:33What a crap.
02:41Wow.
02:46That's a real surprise.
02:56I didn't know you were in Kabul.
03:00For a few days now.
03:04No further here.
03:06That we were in the same place together.
03:11Come on.
03:17It's a bad time to go out with me.
03:22I heard what happened.
03:31I have to be in Delhi for the Commonwealth Games this week.
03:35You're crazy. You belong back in bed.
03:39You can rule the game.
03:41If IP notices this, I'll be robbed immediately.
03:47I think that would be best.
03:54I can see what's happening here.
03:57Your guardian angel has grown tired of all this.
04:02Perhaps a good time to stop.
04:04Stop?
04:07This free junk from the internet.
04:11The death of newspapers.
04:15What are we supposed to do?
04:21So, I'm okay.
04:22I'm not on the right track.
04:24Doing what I've always wanted to do.
04:30I'm done with it.
04:33I didn't give you a word.
04:36You can't just give up everything.
04:40You can't do anything else.
04:43You can't just stop.
04:46The snipers.
04:51Boundary traps.
04:53Executions filmed live on camera.
04:56You know what?
04:59I really won't have to catch any of that.
05:06The only thing, you know,
05:13which I will miss.
05:19Are you.
05:31You forgot something.
05:51Come on.
05:53Don't cry.
05:58You know me.
05:59I only want to if I'm in a cabin.
06:05Goodbye, Anja.
06:10With him, everyone is gone.
06:13My friend.
06:14My companion on this journey.
06:16My love.
06:31Thank you.
06:32Yes.
06:34Another one.
06:59I'll keep him with me!
07:03Your lucky charm!
07:05Until we meet again!
07:07Images of the wounded or killed are taboo in America.
07:10This soldier, I don't even know his name.
07:13It was difficult to keep my promise.
07:16After half a year, I found him in Virginia.
07:19My photos forced Americans to look again.
07:24Kathy, send me heaven.
07:37I trust her completely.
07:39Nobody knows Afghanistan better than she does.
07:51They were so courageous.
07:55Both.
07:56Kathy and Anja.
07:58They went to places that few dare to go.
08:01Anja admired resilient people.
08:05And I don't know if there are people who are tougher than the Afghans.
08:10One week before the presidential elections, there have been further serious attacks in the Afghan capital, Kabul.
08:40That's so loud!
08:51I'm so tired.
08:56Why are we doing this?
09:04Nothing has changed.
09:07Nothing has affected the people, the country, the women in parliament, nothing.
09:12Anja, stop watching this crap.
09:15It's like Warporn.
09:17We have failed.
09:19I failed.
09:21No.
09:23I thought my pictures would have an effect or change something.
09:29Helping, you know.
09:30But they did.
09:31You are a true Pulitzer Prize winner.
09:36Come on, Kathy.
09:42Why are we doing this?
09:4420 shitty years.
09:49My ass is full of shrapnel.
09:51These images are in my skull.
09:52And what was all this for?
09:53Everything I've seen has made me this way.
10:00Yes, it always looks so selfless.
10:03A shitty drug.
10:05War is an addiction.
10:06And this job gives us permission to be selfish.
10:10Yes, I gave up everything.
10:12Love, friendship, and children.
10:13A normal life, because I was so terribly afraid,
10:16to stifle my own insignificance.
10:18And you and I, for us, the war and the people were just there.
10:21To feel ourselves.
10:23That's not true, Anja.
10:26That's not me.
10:31That's the only thing that doesn't affect me at all anymore.
10:34Nobody cares about people.
10:36I feel numb.
10:40I'm just tired.
10:42Incredibly tired.
10:47I'm just tired.
10:54I'm quite nervous.
10:56That's perfectly normal.
10:59Thanks.
11:01Do you know how unusual such a photo shoot is for a woman in our country?
11:12Afghanistan has a long tradition of hiding its women.
11:16And to hide Burkes behind walls in their villages.
11:20Isn't it a problem if they present themselves to the public like that?
11:25My face is my identity.
11:27How can people believe someone who hides their face?
11:33In this country, you have to be very strong if you are a woman.
11:36We are accepted, but respect is lacking.
11:41We still have a very long fight ahead of us.
11:43That's why I'm doing this.
11:47Therefore, we must win.
11:49Could we remove the armchair?
11:54An educated and modern Afghan woman.
11:59This is what progress feels like.
12:01So.
12:02So.
12:05So.
12:18Wonderful pictures.
12:20I am so grateful.
12:23Really.
12:24Wonderful.
12:25The mere fact that these pictures exist means a great deal to me.
12:29What an honor.
12:30Thank you so much.
12:33Unfortunately, nobody printed it at all.
12:36The international press has only been interested in the attacks of the last few days.
12:42I wanted to show your courage to the whole world.
12:44I'm sorry.
12:46Why?
12:47You don't need to feel sorry for yourself.
12:49This isn't about me.
12:52What the Taliban don't want are images of people taking their fate into their own hands.
13:00People who are not afraid of violence.
13:05If nobody wants to print my pictures and nobody learns about her struggle, my work becomes meaningless.
13:12I can't say anything about your work.
13:17But you can always go home and sleep safely in your own bed.
13:22Far removed from all violence.
13:26But what about us?
13:28Our fight never ends.
13:30Not only because friends were kidnapped, raped, and murdered.
13:34We have no other choice.
13:36I've never cared about having a safe bed.
13:39Okay, then show that.
13:41Show the world that Afghans are fighting back against terrorism.
13:46Give the nameless a story.
13:49Give a face to the invisible.
13:51Madam Member of Parliament, we recognize our profession.
13:56There are old people up there in the mountains, almost at the border, who are voting for the first time in their
14:02Life.
14:03Men as old as the mountains themselves stand up and go to vote.
14:08They don't even know what democracy is.
14:11But they understand very well what peace and freedom mean.
14:18Believe me, we will not defeat the Taliban if only the capital city votes.
14:23But they lose when there is a nationwide election.
14:26Oh, excuse me.
14:29Sorry.
14:30Yes.
14:41I can't imagine any woman finding that great.
14:44Absolutely a male invention.
14:52Sometimes I think you are afraid to see the contempt in women's eyes.
14:58Is this really the right road?
15:01These are the only ones available here.
15:10Hello, Melanie.
15:12What?
15:15No, I can't hear you very well.
15:17Why?
15:19No fear.
15:20We are driving in the middle of a large convoy of UN election observers, which is being escorted by the military.
15:27What? Which convoy?
15:28Of course we will.
15:31Yes.
15:32Thanks.
15:33Many times.
15:35Oh God.
15:39You know, only the beginning costs money.
15:42We're going on a road trip.
15:44We're driving all over the country, right down to the very last province.
15:48One month?
15:49I do not know yet.
15:50Maybe a year.
15:52We're driving an Uphra there.
15:54Clear.
16:00Cover your faces quickly.
16:05Shit.
16:08Faster, faster.
16:09I can't.
16:10I can't go any faster.
16:13Shit.
16:15Hide the cameras.
16:19.
16:19.
16:19.
16:19.
16:19Go right now! Go, go through the door!
16:22Go through the door, go through the door.
16:24Go through the door! Go through the door!
16:26Go out the door.
16:27Go through the door, go through the door.
16:51Go back, it's not working, it won't start.
16:58Here, take this
17:12now say it again
17:19a
17:27a
17:29a
17:31a
17:55It is beautiful.
18:03I have a feeling.
18:22Afghanistan. I love you. Your warmth. Your strength. Your courage.
18:53Yes I love you.
18:57Yes I love you.
19:00Yes I love you.
