Nothingwood Trailer (2017)

Trailer for Nothingwood, which screened at the Melbourne International Film Festival.

"You have Hollywood. You have Bollywood. And in Afghanistan you have Nothingwood," shares Salim Shaheen. With 111 films to his name – starring himself, his friends and his family – he would know. He can’t read or write, but he’s forged a career making movies cheap, fast, out of nothing, and often with real guns, ammunition and chicken blood. And it’s working for him; self-distributing his features, his fans are many, mobbing him on the streets wherever he goes.
