One million Afghans are estimated to be addicted to drugs, especially heroin. Alarmingly, 40% of these are women and children. “Addicted in Afghanistan” is an intimate observational documentary that explores the heartbreaking reality behind the headlines as seen through the eyes of Jabar and Zahir, two 15-year-old drug addicts living in Kabul.
Born in Kandahar, Afghanistan and now living in London, Jawed made his first short non-fiction film “Zendan” (Prison) in Afghanistan about Allam, a teacher who secretly educated girls in his home in Kabul. It was broadcasted on Tapesh TV in the USA and was awarded Best Short Film, at EICAR Film School, Paris 2006. “Zendan” also screened at the Short Film Corner, Cannes 2007. “Addicted in Afghanistan” is his first documentary.
