Independent Cinema writes: We’ve all seen the advertisements of the US Army, where they try to recruit young, patriotic people into service, with the promise of fighting for their country and protecting the nation and their loved ones from harm. It’s a valiant profession, and one that should never go unnoticed. There’s a lot that goes on behind the scenes, though, that does goes unnoticed, and Kirby Dick, known best for exposing the MPAA in This Film is Not Yet Rated, has explored this unseen part of the military and crafted a harrowing view of one of the most important jobs in our society today. The Invisible War paints a picture with statistics and personal experiences, that shines an unflattering light upon the US Army and how it handles rape and sexual assault within its own jurisdiction.
Bleeding Cool says
I can’t imagine Kirby Dick‘s new film is going to be an easy watch, but judging from his previous pictures, like This Film Is Not Yet Rated, Sick and Chain Camera, it’s certainly going to provoke some useful debate.
Dick posted the first trailer for The Invisible War earlier today, and made it public when the Sundance listings were revealed.
Well that's certainly going to ruffle some feathers and provoke a fair amount of discussion.
It's an interesting trailer, but when you throw around numbers of people assaulted in the military, you can do the same thing with every profession, industry and so on, can't you?
