After three years of sanctions, women's lives in Afghanistan are highly restricted and hunger is widespread.

Gideon discusses this question with Saad Mohseni, chair of Afghanistan’s largest television station and co-author of a new book Radio Free Afghanistan, and Afghan women's rights activist Fatima Gailani.
