The effects of landmines and unexploded ordinance are manifold - they not only maim and kill, but also have more insidious effects; preventing farmers returning to their land and shepherds from pasturing their livestock, making roads impassable and whole areas uninhabitable.
FOOTPRINTS sets out to document how clusterbombs (de facto landmines once embedded in the earth) turn people's homelands into hostile environments, and how the NGOs, the UN and local people are dealing with this. Shot on location in Laos and Afghanistan
