WHAT HAPPENED TO THE UNEXPLODED BOMBS OF THE VIETNAM WAR? | BOMB HARVEST | WAR STORIES

Cinemavixion Review

This documentary plunges into the harrowing reality of Laos, a nation still grappling with the unexploded ordnance from the Vietnam War. The U.S. carpet-bombed the country, dropping an astonishing 2.5 million tons of bombs over nine years, leaving a deadly legacy. The film follows Australian bomb disposal specialist Laith Stevens as he trains a new team to tackle these leftover "big bombs." Simultaneously, it highlights the desperate plight of local children who risk their lives scavenging for bomb scrap metal. "Bomb Harvest" is a stark and powerful depiction of the enduring consequences of conflict, underscoring the immense bravery of those who confront the dangers to clear the remnants of war and the heartbreaking reality faced by civilians caught in the crossfire.
