English title: No Good Men
With a light touch, exiled filmmaker Shahrbanoo Sadat navigates both personal and societal crises. When a conflict at her news station turns life upside down, unexpected possibilities emerge for the film’s protagonist, Naru – a thirty-year-old divorced camera operator, played by Sadat herself. The political inevitably becomes entangled with the personal, and the stakes rise as Naru begins to doubt herself.

No Good Men is Afghanistan’s first rom-com, and opened the 2006 Berlin Film Festival. Here, the classic romantic comedy collides with a far more charged reality, set against the patriarchal labyrinths of Kabul and the Taliban’s return to power.
