Outnumbered 5 to 1: Inside Afghanistan's Deadliest Ambush

This film reconstructs the Uzbin Valley ambush, one of the most notorious engagements of the war in Afghanistan. For more than twenty hours a small group of paratroopers, outnumbered roughly five to one, fought heavily armed Taliban fighters, and several were killed. Through testimony and detail it conveys the chaos, fear and endurance of the men trapped on that ground. It is a gripping, sobering account of a battle that scarred those who survived it.
