Kabul, August 15, 2021. US troops are preparing to withdraw from Afghanistan, while the Taliban are marching on the capital to seize power. Amid the chaos, Commander Mohamed Bida and his men are in charge of security at the French embassy, the last Western mission to remain open. Trapped along with 500 people, left to their own devices, the team must reach the airport at all costs. A perilous mission with no guarantee of success to flee the hell of Kabul and rescue what remains of humanity.

[Movistar+] France has dedicated a series and a film this year to the evacuation of Kabul following the retreat of the United States and international forces. Both suffer from the same problem, focusing so much on depicting the difficult escape that they sometimes seem more interested in the message than the narrative. This film works well as a suffocating thriller that gradually engulfs its protagonists in an unimaginable nightmare. But in the end, it gives the impression that it doesn't have much to say about the consequences of the withdrawal, remaining instead focused on the spectacle of the masses trying to flee a country that will soon be crushed by religious extremism.
