With the stunning vision of pink poppies swaying against the slopes of the Hindu Kush in mind, he finally obtained permission from the government to plant the illegal crop. Then he and his crew got to work building the set. At the first spring rain they planted the poppy seeds and started filming. Poppy-eradication teams tried to eliminate his set. Twice. Then the rains stopped. Poppies need...
