From his embed with US Marines Echo Company in Afghanistan, photojournalist and filmmaker Danfung Dennis reveals the devastating impact a Taliban machine-gun bullet has on the life of 25-year-old Marine Nathan Harris. The film seamlessly transitions from frontline war reportage to Harris' recovery at home, where he confronts the physical and emotional difficulties of re-adjusting to civilian life with the support of his wife. Masterfully contrasting the intensity of the frontline with the unsettling normalcy of home, Hell and Back Again lays bare the true cost of war. This award-winning film is not one to miss.
