Follows a demining expert in Palmyra, Syria, as he prepares for a final mission while dealing with personal conflict and the immense pressure of his job. Genre: War, Action, Drama. Director: Andrey Kravchuk.
The sun over the Syrian sands did not just shine; it weighed. For Captain Shamanov, the heat was a physical pressure, much like the delicate tension of the tripwires he spent his days untangling. He was a man of silence, a "sapper" who spoke more with his steady hands than with his voice.
He arrived at the ruins of Palmyra with a single goal: to clear the ancient city of the explosive ghosts left behind by retreating forces. Every step was a gamble. Every shadow cast by the crumbling Roman pillars could hide a pressure plate or a remote-detonated nightmare.
