The fortified citadel of Shahr-e-Zohak in Bamiyan, a UNESCO project to safeguard the iconic site

With financial support from the Governments of Italy and Japan, UNESCO launched a programme for the sustainable management of the Bamiyan World Heritage Property with a view towards meeting the benchmarks for its removal from the List of World Heritage in Danger. This film was produced during several field missions organized by UNESCO to the fortified citadel of Shahr-e-Zohak and depicts activities undertaken at the site as well as giving an overview of its history and context. This ÆGIS Productions film was directed and filmed by Daoud Bouledroua and produced by Brendan Cassar in 2024.
