Plot summary
The films follows a Syrian War Explosive Ordnance Disposal team who are targeted by ISIS militants while they prepare the recently liberated historic site of Palmyra to hold a symbolic concert of the Mariinsky Symphony Orchestra. The peacekeeping event can only be held in Palmyra that has been severely damaged by the terrorists only if the ancient city and the roads leading to it are defused. The EOD team clears the way one kilometer at a time. But the closer they get to the center of Palmyra, the more destructive the explosives. Tension grows between the young team Captain and the most experienced of the EOD experts. And yet, despite their differences, when the team falls into an ambush and the Captain goes missing, it’s the experienced sapper that sets out to search for him.

Movie Reviews
Once in the Desert, like so many Russian
i hate...
English dubbed russian movies, seems like the producers think we are all analphabets that cant read cc's, stupid that is...
but if you like horendous explotions, insane shootouts and tactics on the battle filed combined with the love of russian military machine stuff then this film will fit like a glove. The rest is just palmyrian camels of a lovestory that tries to creep through the needlehead opening or trying to get laid the alibaban way, its dry and coarse as a petrified forest in the desert, so go for the explosives, theyre the best.
Russians usually do make good war movies, but this syrian conflict commemoration was far from what i expected. It lasts 30 minutes too long thinks the grumpy old man, but a small recommend still.
