Synopsis

Afghanistan, year 2006. Helmand Province becomes one of the most dangerous place on earth as the British Army deploys into the Taliban heartland. An overextended British army patrol struggles to keep it together under increasingly tough conditions. The unit, at the front line of the war with the Taliban, begins to fray under the stress of combat. As Sergeant Campbell (Nicholas Beveney) tries to rally his men, poor equipment and an unseen and lethal enemy grind them down.

Critics' reviews

"An unsparing and occasionally bleak look at the frustrations of fighting an unwinnable war with inadequate gear. (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of five)"
