Beyond Belief (NR)

synopsis

With our national focus on Iraq, much of the press and popular attention has drifted from Afghanistan, a country we barely know but which is at the epicenter of both the strongest international terrorist training grounds and some of the greatest victims of terrorism. Beyond Belief, a transcendent documentary about two 9/11 widows who forge their own personal grief into a means of understanding and helping women half a world away, puts a face on this country, its people and its traditions through an incredible lens of forgiveness, understanding and hope.
