RESTREPO

Do you think you have a hard life?

Do you think sometimes you don't know how you'll make it?

Watch this movie so you can feel how lucky you really are.

It's on NETFLIX or you can find a way to download or purchase it.

"The war in Afghanistan has become highly politicized, but soldiers rarely take part in that discussion. Our intention was to capture the experience of combat, boredom and fear through the eyes of the soldiers themselves. Their lives were our lives: we did not sit down with their families, we did not interview Afghans, we did not explore geopolitical debates. Soldiers are living and fighting and dying at remote outposts in Afghanistan in conditions that few Americans back home can imagine. Their experiences are important to understand, regardless of one's political beliefs. Beliefs are a way to avoid looking at reality. This is reality."



Warning: You will feel like you want to turn it off multiple times throughout the movie... Don't.


Everyone in America needs to see this.  Don't rob yourself of the feeling of gratitude you'll get after watching this.

GO WATCH!!!
NOW!
