Description
This intimate documentary takes viewers into the lives of troops based at Fort Mackenzie, an isolated town in the middle of the Sunni Triangle, where the men are dependent on the army for any news of what's going on around them. The soldiers conduct raids and go on patrol, but communications are strictly controlled back at the base, with a 48-hour blackout imposed whenever someone is injured. What is it like to be at the mercy of the base's news blackout for information about whether or not your friends may have survived a particular attack?
