Operation Homecoming: Writing the Wartime Experience<br />

Director: Richard E. Robbins<br />

Production Company: The Documentary Group<br />

Operation Homecoming explores the firsthand accounts of American soldiers<br />

through their own words. The film is built upon a project created by the<br />

National Endowment for the Arts to gather the writing of soldiers and their<br />

families who have participated in the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan . Through<br />

interviews and dramatic readings, the film presents a profound window into<br />

the human side of America’s current conflicts. Actors such as Beau Bridges,<br />

Robert Duvall, Aaron Eckhart, Blair Underwood, among others, narrate<br />

the soldiers’s writings. A shortened version airs this month on PBS. More<br />

information is available at www.thedocumentarygroup.com<br />
