ARLINGTON WEST FILM PROJECT

ARLINGTON WEST FILM PROJECT

Synopsis – This is a short trailer for our film about the Arlingon West memorial project. The full 74 minutes long video features 105 candid interviews with visitors to the memorial. Views and opinions expressed in this film offer a broad look at public sentiment both for and against war. Many of the interviews are with young soldiers who participated in the war and have returned or are on their way to Iraq. Members of Gold Star Families For Peace - those family members whose sons or daughters have died in the US war in Iraq - military recruiters, and even children, are among the many others interviewed in this film. Interviews expressed in this film range from pro-war to anti-war, making the film all that much more engaging and suitable for students considering joining the military.

This film is currently being shown on many high school campuses across the country in large auditoriums and in classrooms. The examination of non-violent conflict resolution is a pressing matter for everyone. particularly at this time as our country steps up its miltary violence around the world.
