Set in Kabul during the last days of the Afghan monarchy, it tells of the friendship between Amir, son of a well-to-do family, and Hassan, a poor Hazara. After the Soviet invasion, Amir and his father emigrate to California, but the past forces him to return to Taliban Afghanistan and confront an old betrayal.
