As America apologies for the killing of civilians in US airstrikes in the Farah province of Afghanistan last month, Dispatches examines the effect these operations are having on US-Afghan relations. Directed by Emmy and Bafta award-winning film-maker Tom Roberts, this edition of Dispatches investigates a similar American assault on the village of Azizabad last year in which scores of civilians, including dozens of women and children were killed. The film looks at how, despite evidence to the contrary, the US army remains robust in denying any wrongdoing.
