Follows Canadian Richard Fitoussi on a personal quest into the fiercest
parts of Afghanistan's war-torn southern frontier to learn why Canadian
soldiers are dying in a mission that has sparked more controversy than
any other military intervention in Canadian history.
Embedded with the Canadian military alongside established war
correspondents. Fitoussi sees for himself what is at stake for the
Afghan people and the Canadians who serve in our name.
As his journey unfolds, Fitoussi is faced with the realites of modern
day peacekeeping, and tries to distinguish between the reality on the
ground and the rhetoric of the U.S. led "war on terror". In the end he
witnesses the ultimate sacrifice of young Canadians in a journey that
nearly costs him his life.
