NOTES

Title from title frames

Immediately after the 9/11 attacks, a small contingent of US Troops were sent on a secret mission to overthrow the Taliban. What happens next is equal parts war origin story & cautionary tale, illuminating the impact of 15 years of constant combat.. This untold story features unprecedented access to the Green Berets who played pivotal roles in these covert missions. Reflecting on their experiences and on the brothers-in-arms they lost, these elite soldiers offer a riveting celebration of valor and a sobering, cautionary tale.. Official Selection at the Sundance Film Festival. "There's some bitterness on display, plenty of sadness, and an abundance of camaraderie. But mostly, there's just an impressive frankness - about both tragedies and triumphs." - Matthew Lickona, San Diego Reader. "Its up-close portrait of heroic dedication in extreme situations has the dramatic immediacy and air of privileged access to impress both hawks and doves." - Dennis Harvey, Variety
