Documentary film about the life of things: in some cases, before its existence (the sale of homes not built), in others about to be discarded (the destiny of the utensils from a family home). But inmaterial things are as well interesting, as the dreams and symbols, which are also on the market and that, sometimes, are nothing more than a form of self-affirmation: everything is on the market, everything can change hands.

When the Taliban ruled Afghanistan, taking a photo was a crime. After the regime fell from power in 2001, a fledgling free press emerged and a photography revolution was born. Now, as foreign troops and media withdraw, Afghanistan is left to stand on its own and so are its journalists. Set in a modern Afghanistan bursting with color and character, FRAME BY FRAME follows four Afghan photojournalists navigating a dangerous media landscape as they reframe Afghanistan for the world, and for themselves. Through cinema vérité, powerful photojournalism, and never-before-seen footage shot in secret during the Taliban regime, the film connects an audience with four humans in the pursuit of the truth.
