Reasonable documentary about a group of Danish young soldiers who are sent to Afghanistan. You get a good impression of the activities of a modern soldier on a mission and everything that comes with it. The camera follows the boys everywhere, and this produces impressive material in the action-packed moments. Sometimes a bit long-winded and at times it could have been a bit more in-depth.

I believe this was the first war documentary for me.
I thought it was a very interesting documentary, which in my opinion was very realistically conveyed. In the beginning I thought that the documentary would focus entirely on 2 people, but in the end the docu focuses more on the group than on the individual. I noticed that there was often talk of boredom, something which I think they should have brought out a little more to get an even more complete picture of the war. Furthermore, the images were very beautiful, which was both a minus and a plus. Because of the beautiful images, I didn't always get the feeling that it was all real, and sometimes I had the feeling that I was watching a movie.
All in all, a good documentary that shows what a group of Danish soldiers experiences in their deployment to Afganistan. 3.5*

Strong documentary that shows how war drags people along and makes them do things that they would never have thought possible before. Revenge takes over and prompts inexorable, cruel retributions.
