THE GROUND TRUTH stunned filmgoers at the 2006 Sundance and Nantucket Film Festivals.

Hailed as "powerful" and "quietly unflinching," Patricia Foulkrod's searing documentary feature includes exclusive footage that will stir audiences. The filmmaker's subjects are patriotic young Americans - ordinary men and women who heeded the call for military service in Iraq - as they experience recruitment and training, combat, homecoming, and the struggle to reintegrate with families and communities. The terrible conflict in Iraq, depicted with ferocious honesty in the film, is a prelude for the even more challenging battles fought by the soldiers returning home – with personal demons, an uncomprehending public, and an indifferent government. As these battles take shape, each soldier becomes a new kind of hero, bearing witness and giving support to other veterans, and learning to fearlessly wield the most powerful weapon of all - the truth.

Saw your post at 12:15pmEST (that's 11:15 CST, ain't it?) and turned on Sundance, but it wasn't on for whatever reason.

I've heard of this documentary, but I havn't seen it yet.

Sundance Channel site says it is not screening now.

7. That was stunning...
...and the docudrama afterwards about the three British Pakistani guys who got sent to Guantanamo was just as disturbing. I can't believe they're doing these things in our name.
