Ambushed: Shooting the War (20x15)


Ausstrahlung: Nov 06, 2011

This gripping film offers a unique and unvarnished look at what it's like to be on the front lines of a 21st century conflict. Raw, uncensored footage taken by soldiers wearing wireless helmet cams captures the bravery, chaos, grief and terror of a Taliban ambush, in which one of the soldiers is shot and killed. The rest of the film explores the after-effects of this shooting, the intense helicopter rescue, and the impact the young soldier's death has on both his comrades in the platoon and his family back home.
