Reporter Sandy Gall returns to Afghanistan in the summer of 1984 to find out who, if anyone, is winning the war which began five years previously when Soviet forces invaded the country.
Throughout this 400-mile journey, he records a group of Afghan rebels fighting alongside Russian defectors to create a roadblock in an attempt to ambush a Soviet convoy.
