Set against the dramatic landscape of contemporary Afghanistan and the National sport of Buzkashi - a brutal game of horse polo played with a dead goat Buzkashi Boys is a ground breaking narrative film about two best friends, a charismatic street urchin and a defiant blacksmith's son, who strive to realize their dreams as they make their way to manhood in one of the most war-torn countries on Earth. Filmed entirely on location in Kabul by an alliance of Afghan and international filmmakers, Buzkashi Boys is a heart-rending look at life that continues beyond the headlines of war in Afghanistan.
