Patricia Foulkrod’s film follows six ordinary American men and women through recruitment, training combat in iraq, and back home, where they struggle to integrate into society.
The war depicted with ferocious honesty is a prelude for the even more challenging battles fought by the returning soldiers – with personal demons, an uncomprehending public, and an indifferent government. Each soldier becomes a new kind of hero, bearing witness, supporting other veterans, and learning to fearlessly wield the most powerful weapon of all – The Truth.
Admission is free
