Land Mines: A Love Story

Streaming video - 2005

A compelling anti-war film set in Afghanistan, a country that has become synonymous with conflict. It is also a story of romance and a celebration of life, hope and love. This remarkable film by one of Australia’s most adventurous documentary filmmakers, Dennis O’Rourke, tells the story of Habiba and Shah who, because of the wars fought in Afghanistan over the past 25 years, have experienced immense suffering, but who have survived to show how it is possible to be brave and moral in this world of sanctioned violence and lies. Part observational film and part essay driven by a polemic that is both angry and subtle, LAND MINES: A LOVE STORY is a damning portrayal of the human costs of war.
