Kandahar Break
Filmed at considerable personal risk to the cast and crew, Kandahar Break is a nail-biting drama set in the Afghanistan of the late 1990s. Richard is a British engineer under contract to clear the landmines that pepper the country. His task is to remain an objective professional regardless of the increasingly intolerable conditions under the Taleban. His situation becomes impossible as his love for a local woman puts him at odds with the regime and places them both in grave danger. An engrossing, tautly handled personal tale from the front line of a country in permanent conflict.
We are delighted to welcome director David Whitney who will be introducing the film and then will host a short Q&A session.
Thanks to Millhouse Films.
