Armadillo

For you it's a movie. For them it's reality.

A raw, unflinching documentary of Danish soldiers deployed to Afghanistan that strips away the mythology of war to reveal its psychological and moral toll on ordinary people.

Danish soldiers are sent to Afghanistan in 2009 for 6 months, to help stabilize the country against the Taliban. They're stationed on Armadillo military base in Helman province. Unlike other war movies, this is the real deal – no actors.
