Rock The Kasbah follows Richie Lanz (Murray), who is dumped and stranded in war-torn Kabul by his last remaining client (Deschanel). There he discovers Salima Kahan (Lubany), a Pashtun teenager with a beautiful voice and the courageous dream of becoming the first woman to compete on Afghanistan's version of American Idol. Richie partners with a savvy hooker (Hudson), a pair of hard-partying war profiters (McBride and Caan), and a hair-trigger mercenary (Willis) to brave dangerous cultural prejudices and manage his new protégée into becoming the next Afghan Star. (Gary Reber)
