Jung means war in the Farsi language. The documentary details the 
humanitarian adventure of the building of the Emergency hospital in 
northern Afghanistan in 1999. The film's directors, who made three trips 
in the space of 18 months, spent seven months in a country brought to its 
knees by twenty years of war, a country where mere survival seemed 
impossible.

Jung won first prize at the International Documentary Film Festival in 
Amsterdam in 2000. In 2001 it won the Human Rights Watch Film Festival as 
Best Film and the Vancouver International Film Festival prize as Best 
Documentary.

Please note that this event will be held at Harvard.
