- Storyline
- Lieutenant Anaïs Collet, a highly disciplined officer with an uncompromising moral code, and her unit have been deployed as part of Operation Barkhane, an anti-insurgent military campaign to quell Islamist extremists in Africa's Sahel region. But tracking down terrorists, bolstering practically nonexistent local governments, and simply protecting the lives of innocent villagers turns out to be an extremely complex assignment. The tactical balancing act it requires and the emotional toll it takes on these young men and women push them to their very limits. Yet the series offers a touching portrait of their commitment, their inner struggles, and their palpable courage at every turn.
