One Bullet
The film could also have been called TWO WOMEN, EATING — because one keeps telling the other, 'eat something!' — the essence of a dialogue between foreigners, and in this case, even enemies, Afghan and American. ONE BULLET is an epic story on an intimate, human scale: two decades of war told through one bullet, a death, and a touching friendship.
Told by a filmmaker who spent fifteen years in and out of Afghanistan, the battlefield here lies behind the curtains of an Afghan home as Bibi Hajji struggles with the loss of her youngest child and the weight of a brother's death on her remaining sons. A haunting image of a boy surviving a bullet wound set director Carol Dysinger searching for what happened to him — and who fired the shot.
