Kandahar, Afghanistan, 1999. A team of British mine clearance engineers, including Richard Lee (Shaun Dooley Salvage, Eden Lake) and Steve Delamore (Dean Andrews Ashes to Ashes) are working for the Taliban Government to clear mine in the scorching deserts of Southern Afghanistan. But when Richard falls for their beautiful Afghan interpreter he soon finds himself at the mercy of the local police chief Ashiq Khan, who instigates a manhunt to kill the British infidel. Now alone, Richard must escape on foot through hostile terrain into nearby Pakistan, aided by a force of rebel guerrillas who agree to help him flee from the vengeful Taliban.
