EXCLUSIVE: We have your first look at Matthew Heineman’s gripping new film ‘Retrograde’ from National Geographic Documentary Films, a visceral, ground-level immersion into the last nine months of America’s long war in Afghanistan
from National Geographic Documentary Films, a visceral, ground-level immersion into the last nine months of America’s long war in Afghanistan.
After President Biden announced in April 2021 that he was ordering the withdrawal of the last remaining U.S. military personnel in Afghanistan, Heineman remained behind with Afghan National Army troops and their commander, the dynamic Gen. Sami Sadat. The director documented the emotion of Green Berets as they were forced to tell their Afghan Army counterparts that their long partnership was over.
As the Taliban gobbled up territory after the U.S. exit, Heineman and his co-cinematographers Timothy Grucza and Olivier Sarbil filmed Gen. Sadat and his troops trying to hold the line against the surging Taliban. As Taliban fighters bore down on the capital, the filmmaking team captured the human drama at the airport in Kabul as Afghan civilians desperate to evacuate pleaded for a seat aboard the last U.S. military transport planes leaving the country.
