Combat Obscura
Miles Lagoze / United States, Afghanistan / 2018 / East European Premiere / 68 min.
synopsis
The film is a series of images of everyday life of US soldiers at an Afghanistan military base, interviews and shaky shots from a hand-held field camera. Alongside matter-of-fact depictions of devastating consequences of war, the filmmaker also reveals behind-the-scenes army life bursting with cynicism, chauvinist humor, but with fear and anxiety, too.
