    My Childhood, My Country – 20 Years in Afghanistan

    Watch Trailer
    Synopsis:
    Award-winning filmmakers, Phil Grabsky and Shoaib Sharifi, present a real-life epic of boyhood and manhood, filmed across twenty years in one of the most embattled corners of the globe. My Childhood, My Country – 20 Years in Afghanistan follows the journey of Afghan youth, Mir Hussain, growing up in a land ravaged by war.

    When we first meet Mir, he is a boy of eight playing among the ruins of the Buddhas of Bamiyan in wartorn rural Afghanistan, treating the destruction around him as a wonderful playground. It is 2002 and in the aftermath of the attacks on the World Trade Centre, US troops have landed in Afghanistan, thus beginning a seemingly endless war in one of the world’s poorest countries. This intimate feature documentary follows Mir’s journey over the next two decades, telling a remarkably personal story of the poverty, destruction, aspiration and progress that colours Afghan life today.

    Now a grown man with a family of his own and an emerging career as a news cameraman in Kabul, Mir’s personal journey of pride, resilience and hope is interwoven with the narrative of his nation. Mir’s story is joined by the sobering comments of soldiers, key politicians and journalists who offer insights into the bigger picture – the successes and failures, rights and wrongs over the past 20 years of conflict.
    Two decades on from 9/11 and the subsequent ‘War on Terror’, My Childhood, My Country – 20 Years in Afghanistan offers a uniquely personal insight into one of the most devastating conflicts of the 21st Century. After a trillion dollars spent by 40 countries and 150,000 lives lost, the film asks was it worth it, for Mir, his country and the world?

As time passes,two youngsters -ALOEWIN and VERALIN find love amidst this crisis, but are confined. Their love cannot travel beyond their territory.
    They are, however, determined to make their love an exception to the rule; but all they have to express their feelings is their windows. Their desire to have a physical connection becomes intense that they agree to meet in the greens -the place where their border ends. On the said day, they meet for the first time without restrictions. But this does not last as their parents find out about their secret meetings. This creates a fierce battle amongst the two factions. Aloewin is locked up with no access to Veralin. Fate has one more trick to play on the couple; Veralin is pregnant and no one must know about it, not even Aloewin. What will be left of their love?

    SubReader

    www.subreader.dk

    SubReader offer cinemas an independent state of the art solution to meet the demand for accessibility for visually impaired and dyslexic cinemagoers.
    People with impaired eyesight are able to receive audio descriptions (AD) and people with reading or language difficulties can get subtitled movies translated and read aloud in their native language.
    SubReader is already installed in numerous cinemas in Europe and is the new default system for cinema accessibility, enabling equal cinema access for everybody and thereby expanding the target audience and ticket sales.
    It all happens through the SubReader app giving the individual cinemagoer the ability to make use of the accessibility options on their own mobile phone in a discrete manner. Thus, by using the Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policy, the cinema does not have to go through the hassle of installing equipment inside each screen or lending/collecting equipment at each show. Furthermore, it is free for the cinemagoer to use.
    The system is fully automated, and once installed, the SubReader server automatically obtains all the data needed from the DCP.
    We are cooperating with cinema- and handicap-associations to make the solutions as user-friendly as possible and are enabling cinemas to fulfil the obligations of new legislation within accessibility.

Its modular structure brings the spectators closer to the screen, emotionally immersing each of them into the story.

    Ōma is a Premium Format offer, flexible in its design to suit every cinema type from small to large screen.  The viewing pods/balconies can be customised and made different from one another, enabling excellent opportunities for group or “private box” sales, whilst the F&B opportunities are multiple, from standard cinema offers to at seat or private hire service.

    The concept of ‘pods/balconies’ also allows for families and groups to enjoy an intimate experience.

    Designed in the cinephile city of Paris by the renowned architect Pierre Chican specialized in the realization of movie theaters, its unique and patented architecture intensifies the captivating power of movie theaters. Its proprietary concept of ‘pods/balconies’ reinvents the audience position in front of the screen, bringing them emotionally and physically closer to the movie.

    Severtson Screens

    Strategic Partners

    http://www.severtsonscreens.com/

    Severtson Screens is a global leader in projection screen technology and is known throughout the world for excellent quality projection screens.
    Severtson Corporation first started in 1986 with its first job at Arizona’s own Williams Air Force Base in response to the US Air Force’s need to find both a quality optical coating and a uniform application process for the screens of their domed simulators. Working late each night in the family kitchen the company’s founder, Ron Severtson, not only solved the technical problem of uniformly coating a domed surface, he created a product that had the reflective properties the Air Force needed for its simulator program to be successful.
    Demand for Severtson’s product soon had the company working for large corporations and military organizations in over 40 countries. In an effort to address the safety concerns of the day’s solvent based optical coatings and remain competitive in the world market, Ron continued to refine his formulas. His work led to the introduction of Severtson Corporation’s 3D optical coatings in 1988. By 1989 Severtson Corporation’s optical coatings were safer, more environmentally friendly water-based formulas.
    In the early 1990’s a contract with IMAX Corporation brought Severtson Corporation into the cinema screen industry. To meet the challenge of the larger screens, a robotic application system was designed that could be used to coat screens on site. In 1998 Severtson Corporation applied its optical coatings to the world’s largest cinema screen (103’ x 129’) in Sydney, Australia.
