When the Taliban took over, 16 year-old LatifaâÂÂs college closed and her mother was forced to stop work. Now living in exile in Paris, Latifa tells of her life cooped up like an Afghani Anne Frank in a Kabul apartment â and of rare glimpses of the world outside through the holes in her headdress. A raw, passionate perspective on five years in Afghanistan.
