The story is very well known in our culture, and it was often told to me as well. For example, we neighborhood kids used to sit together in the winter, and the grandmother of the boy next door would tell us the story.

Afghanistan is so much more than just a country at war!
The short film depicts the daily life of five-year-old Saadat, and a lot happens… watch for yourself what he experiences besides washing himself with stones and drinking dogh.
A traditional Afghan story told as an animated film. The mother goat leaves her kids behind to get food. This, in turn, interests the wolf, who is also hungry.
