Rockabul DVD

"Rockabul...shows us a part of Afghan culture, taking us inside life in Kabul...and provides an experience that is a privilege to witness".

Rockabul by Melbourne based director Travis Beard, follows Afghanistan's first metal band District Unknown, in the war torn capital of Afghanistan, Kabul, where Rock music is forbidden by Islam.

The band, District Unknown put themselves in the firing line to challenge freedom of expression, youth identity and conflict with culture. We get a glimpse into the lives of young people living in the aftermath of absolute destruction and chaos, that is Afghanistan. A glimpse into the fire that ignites a young band to play music together and connect with other youth. A glimpse into the underground expat party scene, at odds with the conservative and fundamentalist society in Kabul, Afghanistan...
