A look at the destroyed country from a well off liberal New Yorker who gives up her comfort to bring humanitarian aid to the women of Afghanistan. It is a noble quest, but her view of Afghanistan is strictly from the single angle of an American Ultra Feminist, which brings a somewhat condescending view of a country far too complex to be considered from one point of view.
