About Kabul: Life in the World's Most Dangerous City
Since the Taliban seized power in August 2021, Kabul has transformed into one of the most dangerous cities on Earth. This investigation plunges into a capital gripped by fear, oppression, and a looming famine. Follow the daily lives of those who stayed behind: a female journalist risking her life to report, a former judge hiding from those he once sentenced, and a US-trained soldier marked for death. A raw look at the crushing of women's rights and the daily struggle for survival under the new regime.
