    • Synopsis
    • Andalucia, Spain. One of the world’s worst places to fight a fire, where temperatures up to 45º
      meet with vast vegetation. Only a handful of men stand between fire and the annihilation of
      millenarian forests. Gus leads the elite of them. Twelve men flying to hell. And hell is a forest swallowed by 50 meters high flames. As soon as their helicopter lands they are on their own, in the middle of an ocean of fire. Gus looks to his men and is ready to jump. Twelve lives are on him now. The eternal struggle of men against the elements as you´ve never seen it before. A documentary with a unique level of access and extraordinary characters.
