This harrowing war film follows American soldiers on a 15-month deployment in the remote Korengal Valley in eastern Afghanistan. In an unrelentingly harsh landscape, the unit digs in, takes enemy fire, and returns it, every day. Not everyone makes it out alive. Scenes of the chaos of combat are interspersed with post-deployment interviews, and both are devastating. For more information, visit the film website.
