After the collapse of Afghanistan’s Soviet-backed government, a
mullah finds himself doing anything to protect his students. Chaos
reigns in the wake of the collapse of Afghanistan's Soviet-backed
government. In the rural, warlord-ruled south, a student is badly
beaten at a checkpoint run by bandits. His teacher, who leads a
madrassa for orphans left behind by Afghanistan’s civil war,
leads his students back to the checkpoint and forces the bandits
out. His actions set in motion a chain of events that will change
the balance of power in his country and send shock waves through
history. Amid villagers seeking protection and warlords seeking
power, the Mullah's influence grows. Against the backdrop of
anarchy dominated by armed factions, he devotes himself to building
a house of peace with his students — or, as they are called in
Pashto, taliban. Part intrigue, part war narrative, and part
historical drama, This Shall Be a House of Peace charts their
breathtaking ambition, transformation, and rise to power.
