This is a kick in the ass documentary that is ultimately just three vets,(Wade Spann, Michael Gomez, and Omar Hernandez ) talking about their combat experiences and the even more difficult efforts of trying to come back home and fit into society.
This is a punch in the face cinema at it’s most basic, it’s simply people sitting and talking and telling their story. It’s kind of a solo theatrical performance because it’s real. The camera doesn’t look away and we are hypnotized.
More importantly these tales of what our soldiers go through in battle and after drive us to out knees. These guys went through hell and they let the experience bleed out before us so we understand what they have lost.
This is a great film. Yea it’s not the most cinematic, but it’s stories we need to hear and take to heart. These men are opening themselves up to us so that their brothers and sisters down the road can have an easier time. We need to listen to them.
