Graduate and filmmaker, Mikai Karl traveled
to Afghanistan last spring while doing his senior year Community
Outreach project. While there, he and his father shot footage of the
country and its people, and upon his return, Mikai edited the footage
into a short film.
"Afghanistan is a country misunderstood,
depressed by conflict, fighting for stability," says Mikai. "A country,
thought of as inhospitable, is in fact home to some of the most
hospitable people I have ever met. Yes, there has been war, their
country has been torn, but they are a strong people, just like any
other, searching for peace."
Karl's film has been viewed nearly 9,000 times
on the two different Youtube channels it's listed on and over 24,100
times on Vimeo with popular sites like infinitylist.com listing it and
countless other bloggers blogging about the video.
"We were just informed that his video was
shown by the Afghanistan government at the London Conference on
Afghanistan," says Delphian Headmistress, Rosemary Didear.
