Meet Karim Asir, Afghanistan's Charlie Chaplin

With a bowler hat, black eyeliner and a toothbrush moustache, Karim Asir is an uncanny Charlie Chaplin. He performs as the silent movie icon all over Afghanistan - in schools, orphanages, on stage and even in black and white films. However, it isn't just about the comedy for Karim, his performances come with a strong moral message.
