In this edition, French filmmaker and journalist Mélanie Nunes speaks to FRANCE 24 about her investigative report, "Afghanistan : les soignantes de l'ombre" or ‘the unsung female carers’. It follows women in the country as they try to get the heath care they need, as well as following health care providers themselves as they try to offer their services. Nunes says that the women who participated in the short-form documentary did so because “nobody cares about what they think" in their own country. "Afghanistan : les soignantes de l'ombre" recently came out on the Arté television channel.
