An award-winning short documentary film about the extraordinary sacrifice and inspiring resilience of brave American men and women in uniform who have served in Iraq and Afghanistan since 9/11, been wounded, and are role models of the human capacity to overcome adversity.
It was an absolute honor to meet our Warriors and help share their stories. We enjoy the freedom of working to make a living as storytellers thanks to the men and women who risk their lives protecting our nation...
In WOUNDED WARRIORS' RESILIENCE we attempt to shine a light on our Warriors that reflects our immense gratitude for their service & sacrifices.
