Bomb Harvest
Over 35 years ago, during the Vietnam War, American bombs rained down on Laos in the 'Secret War', leaving it the most bombed country in history. The deadly legacy of this destruction continues today, with the country still scattered with unexploded ordinance. Bomb Harvest is a documentary film about one volunteer Australian and a team of Lao Trainees working to disarm and destroy the endless bombs still embedded in Laos soil. A film that transports the viewer to another place, a place of both hardship and joy, Bomb Harvest is a highly emotional film that is a must see. I checked it out today and was left feeling touched by the lives of the Lao people, and the children who unwantingly uncover dangerous bombs while "digging for crickets to eat".
