Angelina Jolie, beautiful stranger behind Afghan school

Published
By AFP

At a school she built in a bombed-out Afghan village near Kabul, Angelina Jolie is known as an aid worker or engineer - never as one of the world's most famous film stars. Jolie, a special envoy of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees, built the school in Qala-i-Gudar last year and is planning to open more in Afghanistan with profits from a newly-launched jewellery line that she has designed.
