With the aid of U.S. weapons and training, Syrian Democratic Forces (SDP), a civilian militia consisting of mostly Kurds and many women, has taken back a third of the country.

Includes interviews with: Leila Mustafa, head of civilian counsel of Raqqa; General Mazlum Kobane, SDP leader; Senators Jean Shaheen (D-NH) and Lindsay Graham (R-SC ); Adrien Guihal, ISIS detainee.

Afghan Ladies' Driving School

Mr Mamozai's Driving School is the first driving school in Kabul to teach both men and women how to drive.

Mr Mamozai's Driving School is the first driving school in Kabul to teach both men and women how to drive. And probably the only driving school for women in the world that is run by men who don't really think women should drive at all. But then the driving instructors at Mr Mamozai's are all ex-Taliban, so clearly this is no ordinary driving school. The programme provides a revealing look at how life has in some ways radically changed for women in Afghanistan since the collapse of the Taliban, but in other ways, remains difficult. At times hilarious, and shocking, this documentary charts the women's struggle in a male-dominated world, but also puts a human face on a country often in the news.
