The ancient tradition of [[Bacchá|Bachi Bazi]] (translation: ''boy-play'') was banned under the Taliban, but has resurfaced since they were routed by [[International Security Assistance Force|ISAF]] in late 2001; boys as young as 11 are bought and sold like slaves, dressed up like women and made to dance before audiences of men. ''The Dancing Boys of Afghanistan'' exposes how these boys are systematically sexually abused, and frequently murdered by jealous rival owners. Despite these practices being illegal under Afghan law, the film shows that the men committing the abuse do so with impunity. This film premiered at the [[Royal Society of Arts]] on 29 March 2010.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.thersa.org/events/audio-and-past-events/2010/true-stories-the-dancing-boys-of-afghanistan |title=Archived copy |access-date=2010-04-22 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20100831101441/http://www.thersa.org/events/audio-and-past-events/2010/true-stories-the-dancing-boys-of-afghanistan |archive-date=2010-08-31 }}</ref> It was aired on [[PBS Frontline]] in the United States, and True Stories in the UK on 20 April 2010.
