Synopsis

Less than a year after the attacks of September 11, a journalist/filmmaker and his crew snuck into Afghanistan to do a story on the bounty hunters tracking Osama Bin Laden. They wound up in Kabul asking questions and seeking information and finding themselves the only Americans in a city where Americans are hated. This is one man's mission to discover the elusive truth about the war and 9/11--a behind-the-scenes look of war-torn Afghanistan, as the filmmaker, his cameraman, and their translator/guide find themselves traveling in the middle of a battleground, camera in hand, capturing raw footage and encountering dangerous Taliban fighters.
