  HOLLYWOODGATE / Germany, U.S. (Director: Ibrahim Nash’at; Producers: Talal Derki, Odessa Rae, Shane Boris)
  When the United States withdrew from its 20-year “forever war” in Afghanistan, the Taliban retook control of the ravaged country and immediately found an American base loaded with weaponry—a portion of the over $7 billion in U.S. armaments still in the country. Unprecedented and audacious, director Ibrahim Nash’at’s HOLLYWOODGATE spends a year inside Afghanistan following the Taliban as they take possession of the cache America left behind—and transform from a fundamentalist militia into a heavily armed military regime.
