The Truth About Afghanistan

Available for over a year

All eyes are on Afghanistan post 9/11- but what is life really like for the women and children there? A new film, Kandaha, gives an insight into life under the Taliban, and its leading lady, Nelofer Pazirar, explains how it's loosely based on her life. Also on the programme: A revealing portrait of Agatha Christie, the queen of crime fiction. Plus, a female jazz trumpeter explains how this most masculine of instruments is perfect for a small woman like herself.
