Taliban's takeover of Kabul in August 2021. As the world
witnessed harrowing scenes of desperate Afghans clamoring for
escape, the film delves deeper into the narrative of ordinary
citizens, veterans, and activists who rallied together in an
audacious bid to honor America's promise to its Afghan allies.

missions, this diverse coalition navigates perilous obstacles to
evacuate translators, aid workers, and activists left behind in the
chaos. From covert rendezvous in Taliban-controlled territories to
the uncertain sanctuary of temporary refuges, August After
captures the resilience of the human spirit amidst the tumult of
war and waiting, offering a poignant testament to the enduring
power of solidarity and hope.
