Days after the Taliban had fled the city
of Kandahar, Magnum photographer
Thomas Dworzak discovered in an
abandoned studio, portraits of men
with sultry poses in front of often
garish backdrops, in high-heeled
sandals with make-up. A tradition
of the native Pashtuns, long-noted
for their flamboyancy, this is an
unexpectedly illicit side of the Taliban.
