Aborted Mission

Poland2018documentary50'Polska panorama (2018)

Painfully frank stories of two veterans of the war in Afghanistan. The aborted mission ended up in a similar way for them. They are physically wounded and mentally scarred for life. Tomek treated the war as a chance to come to terms with his difficult childhood, Franek left his wife and newly-born child in Poland to go to war. Both of them had dreams that were confronted with the brutal reality of the armed conflict. The film director avoids the vision of easy heroism and takes a closer look at the soldiers of the Polish contingent.
