FIRES
OF KUWAIT takes the viewer in to the very center of
blazing, out-of-control oil well fires. The film highlights
the massive international firefighting effort launched
after more than 600 oil wells were sabotaged by retreating
Iraqi troops in the aftermath of the Gulf War. Nominated
in 1993 for an Academy Award for Best Feature Documentary,
FIRES OF KUWAIT is a tribute to the firefighters'
heroism and ingenuity, and a celebration of their
ultimate victory.
"Easily the most spectacular and exciting of all
IMAX ® documentaries"
