(Brent Huffman, 2014, USA, DCP, 60 min.)
“Saving Mes Aynak” follows an Afghan archaeologist as he races against time to save a 5,000-year-old archaeological site from imminent demolition by a Chinese mining company. Some believe that future discoveries at the site have the potential to redefine the history of Afghanistan and Buddhism itself.
Director Brent Huffman will attend the screening. General admission is free.
