The International Film Festival Rotterdam (January 24 january - February 4) is to premiere a 70-minute feature shot on mobile phone.

Why Didn't Anybody Tell Me It Would Become This Bad In Afghanistan was filmed by Dutch filmmaker Cyrus Frisch using Sharp 902 and 903 mobile phone camera.

It is the story of a Dutch soldier, traumatised by his experience in Afghanistan.

Frisch said the phone camera allowed him to capture the increasing tension he felt in the streets between locals and a new immigrant population.
