Description

Pink Mist is a powerful verse-drama that explores the human cost of modern warfare. Three young soldiers from Bristol are deployed to Afghanistan, and upon their return, they must confront the psychological and physical aftershocks of their service.

The work draws on interviews with soldiers and their families, as well as ancient texts like Y Gododdin, to create a deeply personal and emotionally intense portrayal of the devastating conflict in Afghanistan. With everyday yet heightened speech, Owen Sheers excavates the human cost of war, shedding light on the experiences of those affected.

This is a work of great dramatic power and documentary integrity, offering a unique perspective on one of the most significant conflicts of our time.
