Under a relentless aerial bombardment of Hezbollah rockets, Liraz's authority is challenged on both sides: by strained soldiers who increasingly become weary of their mission's purpose and uncooperative superiors. The agony ends when Liraz gets the final order to evacuate and the famed Beaufort outpost is blown to pieces with six tons of explosives - burning up the sky over Lebanon. Rather than deliver a political commentary on the Middle East, Beaufort offers a rare insight into the human reality behind the tough exterior shell of the Israeli Defence Force.

The agony intensifies as the men wait for their final order to evacuate...
