The Last Interpreter

The final Afghan interpreter left behind after the 2021 withdrawal risks everything to bring his family to safety.

About This Film

August 2021. As Kabul falls, British-trained interpreter Tariq remains hidden in a Kabul apartment with his wife and two daughters, waiting for an evacuation flight that keeps getting cancelled. His phone is the last link to a British officer trying to get him out through unofficial channels. Told in real time over 72 hours, The Last Interpreter is a harrowing account of bureaucratic abandonment and extraordinary resilience.
