Three aging, wealthy, shipwrecked Afghan vloggers from Kabul end up on a dubious German boat that can talk. The war has shown them the prevalence of violence, but also how violence breaks boundaries. They have lived through a lot––bombings and terror––and they respond to the destruction with sovereign, semi-secret video channels as a subversion and transformation of the experience of death. The boat, meanwhile, gives Dadaist orders and tries to integrate the rebellious Afghan women. The German captain is on the verge of a nervous breakdown. The vlogs and attitude of the radically modern old women show a process in which fool's license and violence merge. Their video messages are about many things: They give instructions, they narrate, they command, they sing, they trick, they scold, they tell disingenuous jokes, they pout, they dance, they seduce, they despair, they show themselves.
