Summary:
A unique documentary about troops' experiences in Iraq and Afghanistan, based on writings by members of the Army, Marines, Air Force and National Guard. Explores the searing firsthand accounts of American troops through their own words in fiction, verse, letters, essays and personal journals. Combining interviews and dramatic readings, the film transforms this remarkable collection of writing into a deep examination of life on the front lines. The film provides depth and context for these experiences through conversations with great American writers from previous wars, including Tim O'Brien and James Salter.
