I thoroughly enjoyed Weight of the World. I learned so much about the Afghanistan people and their country. I live in the Midwest and am going to recommend this movie to my friends and family. Many Midwesterners think of Afghanistan as being a terrorist country filled with evil people. They have no idea of the spirit and fun loving nature of these people who have been through so much! It was interesting that weightlifting gave these men the confidence they need to succeed in life. It was interesting how much they enjoy and respect Arnold Schwarzenegger and his old movies. I would love to see more and learn more about this amazing country. I'd like to see if their lives have changed since they were given the right to vote.
