wonderful movies

Extraordinary movie with with extraordinary cast. All credit goes to director who took ordinary people and made this wonderful movie. He (the director) also got credit that, the shows the real face of frontier which is now (KPK) Pakistan. The director put slap on western media who are wrongly exposing frontiers and there people. Actually these people are surviving there in bad condition, after US government leave there undone/ unfinished work behind. i hope other movies will come soon after this wonderful masterpiece.
