Afghanistan, 1981, and the Soviet Union is locked in a futile and bloody battle with the Mujahadeen guerrillas. Separated from their patrol, the crew of a Russian T-62 tank engages in a deadly game of cat and mouse with the local insurgents led by Taj (Steven Bauer from TRAFFIC). The tyrannical tank commander Daskal (George Dzundza from CRIMSON TIDE) wreaks havoc on a peaceful Afghani village, pushing the moral boundaries of the tank driver Koverchanko (Jason Patric from THE LOST BOYS) to the limits. He must make the ultimate choice: to be true to his country or to his heart

Filled with spectacular action sequences, this film is a realistic document about men at war and the effect war has on the human conscience. It portrays fighting men who, under severe stress, manage to find a common humanity amid death and destruction ...

An epic of modern warfare, handsomely produced and superbly executed.
