A stirring and beautiful documentary from Academy Award-nominated director James Longley (Iraq in Fragments), Angels are Made of Light traces the lives of young students and their teachers at a school in the old city of Kabul. Interweaving the modern history of Afghanistan with present-day portraits, the film offers an intimate and nuanced vision of a society living in the shadow of war.
