Beyond the awful voiceover at the onset, this is a nicely put together doc that builds on the stories of personal destruction through various wars to culminate with the wrenching disintegration of one post traumatic stress disorder victim's family. The point is clear: even when our wars are fought on the other side of the world, with minimal casualties and mission accomplished, there is a dramatic civilian cost payed at home.

It's a very moving documentary about PTSD. It's more on the emotional spectrum rather than directly informational, but I didn't mind that. Putting people through this crap is horrible, and one wishes that we could live in a world without war, but that seems like a strange utopia that might never happen. Those pictures at the end were haunting.
