Forty years ago, the invasion of Afghanistan by Soviet troops marked the start of 10 years of a dirty war, full of suffering and destruction in a particular international context.

Using exclusive archives from the Afghan guerrillas and the testimony of the former commander-in-chief of the Soviet expeditionary force, this film retraces ten years of world history through the prism of Afghanistan.
And brings to life the trauma of this conflict from the inside, as close as possible to those who experienced it. A dive into the heart of a tragedy that shaped the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st, with the collapse of the Soviet Union, the end of communism and the emergence of the t€rr0ri$t€ nebula that still threatens the planet. Through this story, this film is also a geopolitical vision of the world, from the Cold War to the international t€rr0ri$m€.
