Tracking shot from car/train; of semi-desert landscape with scrubby foliage. Then shot from boatlooking across lake (Ab-i-Istada?) toward mountains in distance. Many men on deck; looking ahead. Side view cargo ship. Port on lake seen from water; buildings squeezed between harbour in FG and mountains in BG. Next; pan on old wall; small tower. Westerner and 2 Afghan VIPs sit at table; a few others on ground beside it. More Afghans sit in semicircle facing table; some of these walk up 1 at a time & each is given some document. One man looks like T. E. Lawrence but perhaps it is some other Englishman who dresses like an Arab. More shots of hilly terrain. Pan on small group of low; box-like buildings; a few Afghans walk past. Military HQ? Flagpole flying Union Jack (Britain controlled Afghanistan’s foreign affairs from 1907-1919 so may have had something to do with the military.
