Watch HELL OF A NATION on Global Voices on PBS WORLD

In Afghanistan in 2003, the road to becoming a delegate was almost as difficult as the terrain itself: only a fraction of Afghans would be elected to attend the country’s constitutional convention, the Loya Jirga. HELL OF A NATION offers an intimate look at two candidates struggling to participate in this landmark event.

HELL OF A NATION airs Sunday, September 13 at 10:00 PM on Global Voices on PBS WORLD (check local listings). A co-presentation with Thirteen/WNET New York
