Sri Lanka has been living with wounds that won't heal since its decades-long civil war ended. Beyond Borders travels to Sri Lanka to meet the women clearing mines, ex-child soldiers reintegrating into society, war widows finding new opportunities, and families still convinced their missing loved ones are alive.

In this companion podcast to the full show, David Foster and the Beyond Borders team bring you the story behind the story - including a close call with an insanely hot chilli.
