Using 300 hours of footage shot over three years this extraordinary and thought-provoking documentary follows a battle-hardened Afghan Brigadier General Sayar and the friendship he develops with an American Colonel enlisted with helping him turn ragtag groups of uncertain impoverished men into a trained standing Afghan National Army. This unexpected camaraderie is captured between them despite Sayar's growing exasperation with the US and their growing friendship reveals the human cost of an impossible policy.
