News: Afghan Muscles nominated BEST DANISH DOCUMENTARY and BEST DEBUT at CphDox Gulddok 2007

Afghan Muscles will smash every stereotype you ever had about Muslim identity and the devastated country of Afghanistan

The young men of Afghanistan have discovered the art of bodybuilding. In a country ravaged by war, these men still hold on to their dreams; dreams of muscle, honour and fame – absolute control of the body in a world of chaos.

”Afghan Muscles” is a story about dreams. The dreams we all share, but that are never the same. From the rubbles of Kabul to the skyline of Dubai we follow Hamid on a great journey that will take him accross mountains and through a struggle to honour both his own dreams and his fathers aspirations.
