Summary:
What does it take to walk into danger while everyone else is taking cover, to know that one wrong move could mean certain death? This landmark film from the team behind the Bafta winning documentary Wounded is an intimate portrayal of the work of the specialist bomb disposal teams, including pre-deployment training, a tense tour of duty in Afghanistan and the return home. It goes to the heart of the action with men and women whose job is to find and diffuse the Taliban's devastating homemade bombs and booby traps, the IED devices responsible for 80% of the casualties in the long-running conflict.
