DocHouse joins together with The Frontline Club to present a series of screenings from independent filmmakers on the real impact of the continuing wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Shot in the sprawling refugee camps of the North West Frontier province in Pakistan and Kabul, Afghanistan, View From A Grain of Sand tells the story of three Afghan women, each dramatically affected by the different regimes of the last twenty-five years. A doctor, a teacher and a social activist give us their unique version of how they hope to see their country change, their convictions and the tremendous losses they had to deal with.
