Seventh Art Productions Releases Powerful Refuge Documentary

Internationally acclaimed Seventh Art Productions have released the multiple award-winning documentary 'The Boy who Plays on the Buddhas of Bamiyan'.
Powerful and surprising, this production is essential viewing for those with an interest in the political struggles of this mysterious culture or anybody concerned with the impact of war on a community.
This beautifully shot feature length documentary is an account of the lives of the main character Mir and his family living in the caves of the Buddhas of Bamiyan.
Originally broadcast on Five, the breathtaking cinematography has meant this latest release from Seventh Art has been received with much acclaim. It has won awards from the Chicago Television Awards, the Valladolid International Film Festival, the Santa Barbara International Film Festival and the Royal Television Society to name but a few. The DVD is available RRP £19.99.
