PLATOON (Afghanistan, 2008-2009)
In the eastern Afghan province of Khost, American soldiers and Afghan security troops guard one of the most strategically significant passes in the region. Their mission is to protect the most important highway that links Khost with the capital, Kabul. On their return home, it becomes clear just how high the price is that these soldiers pay for this dangerous work. Several of the soldiers have been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder and one committed suicide. In the meantime, their colleagues from the platoon get ready for a new tour of duty in Afghanistan.
