Title: Intimate War
Description: 'An Intimate War' tells the story of the last 34 years of conflict in Helmand Province, Afghanistan, as seen through the eyes of the Helmandis. It offers a very different view of Helmand from those in the media. It demonstrates how outsiders have most often misunderstood the ongoing struggle in Helmand and how, in doing so, they have exacerbated the conflict, perpetuated it and made it more violent - precisely the opposite of what was intended with their interventions were launched.
