As for non-alcohol-based modes of community-building, Dunster ensures those warm, fuzzy feelings during the seasons, particularly around Christmas time when a giant evergreen graces a corner of the dining hall and residents write thank you cards to each other and hugs abound.

As the soldiers and the Afghans warily circle each other misunderstandings abound. The refugees have taken shelter under abandoned Soviet army tanks, which the soldiers mistake for a Taliban encampment. They open fire, setting the stage for anger and frustration. The Afghans fear the soldiers are after their opium crop, or, when one of the soldiers tries to make friends with a toddler, that...
