Vietnam War, 1966. Australia and New Zealand send troops to support the United States and South Vietnamese in their fight against the communist North. Soldiers are very young men, recruits and volunteers who have never been involved in a combat. On August 18th, members of Delta Company will face the true horror of a ruthless battle among the trees of a rubber plantation called Long Tân. They are barely a hundred. The enemy is a human wave ready to destroy them.
How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A visceral, unflinching account of inexperienced soldiers confronting overwhelming odds in a brutal jungle ambush. The film strips away heroics to show the raw fear, camaraderie, and desperation of young men fighting to stay alive.
