The Horse Soldiers is the true, dramatic account of a small band of
Special Forces soldiers who entered Afghanistan immediately
following September 11, 2001 and, riding to war on horses, defeated
the Taliban. Heavily outnumbered, they nonetheless succeed in
capturing the strategic Afghan city of Mazar-e Sharif, where they
are welcomed as liberators as they ride on horseback into the city,
the streets thronged with Afghans overjoyed that the Taliban have
been kicked out. The soldiers rest easy, as they feel they have
accomplished their mission. Then the action takes a wholly
unexpected turn. During a surrender of Taliban troops, the Horse
Soldiers are ambushed by the would-be P.O.W.s and, still
dangerously outnumbered, they must fight for their lives in the
city's ancient fortress known as Qala-I Janghi, or the House of
War...
