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.
