. What is it about the movie, Titanic, that is so interesting to the people of Kabul?

The year is 2000, and the national drought has gotten worse, and people become nomads looking for water. Aziza insists that the family "play Titanic" repeatedly.

Laila speculates that everyone attached themselves to the movie because they wanted to be rescued from their current awful situations in Afghanistan.
