INDEPENDENT LENS: Hell and Back Again
Monday, May 28 at 10 p.m.
What does it mean to lead men in war? What does it mean to come home — injured physically and psychologically — and build a life anew? In "Hell and Back Again," two overlapping narratives are intercut — the life of a Marine at war on the front and the life of the same Marine in recovery at home — creating both a dreamlike quality and a strikingly realistic depiction of how Marines experience this war.
