_____________________________________________________________Summary__



Over 35 years ago, during the Vietnam War, American bombs rained down

on Laos in a so-called 'Secret War'. The legacy of this destruction is

many-fold: thousands killed, forests and villages destroyed, the

countryside still scattered with unexploded ordnance. A live bomb is

found behind a village school and straight-talking Australian bomb

disposal specialist Laith Stevens arrives to check it out. He's in

the process of training a new 'Big Bomb' team, so reluctantly leaves

it until the team is up to the task. Reluctant, because rural poverty

has triggered a brisk illegal trade in bomb scrap metal that the local

kids are increasingly drawn to. Bomb Harvest vividly depicts the

consequences of war and the unimaginable bravery of those trying to

clear up the mess.
