Save Afghan Kite Runner Boys

About Me

SAVE THE KITE RUNNER BOYS
PLEASE JOIN THE FORUM! They should be the happiest boys in Afghanistan. They starred in Paramount's "The Kite Runner," to be released this November.

After three months of filming, Paramount sent the families back to Kabul with a small sum; too little to move to safer surroundings, yet enough to draw the attention of kidnappers and thieves.

Their own people may react harshly as well, due to a controversial rape scene in the film.

It hits airwaves this November. Paramount needs to assume responsibility for their carelessness before it's too late.
