The Giant Buddhas

In the Bamiyan Valley of Afghanistan, two monumental Buddha statues stood tall for 1,500 years, till the Taliban's edict to destroy all non-Islamic statues in 2001. Despite international outcry, the statues were blown up, leaving behind a trail of destruction and sparking a discussion on the consequences of religious extremism. Through interwoven narratives from the past and present, "The Giant Buddhas" sheds light on the disturbing implications of such fanaticism.
