Afghanistan, año 2006. Una patrulla del ejército británico se adentra en una de las zonas más peligrosas de la provincia de Helmand, corazón del régimen talibán. Pronto las cosas comienzan a ponerse feas... Written and directed by former soldier, Tom Petch, 'The Patrol' provides the antidote to the war action film. A psychological drama, the film explores the relationships between a group of British soldiers as they grow disillusioned with the Afghan war.
