On a journey through the remote North West Frontier of Pakistan, Australian Benjamin Gilmour discovered an astonishing culture - 'one of strong beliefs and a suspicion of outsiders, a love of Hollywood films and an obsession with making guns'. With unstoppable determination, Benjamin decided to return a year later to make a movie about those tribal regions - despite the fact that he had never actually made a film before and that it was illegal and extremely dangerous for him to do so. Warrior Poets is a riveting memoir about Benjamin’s journeys to Pakistan and the making of the film.
