Full Veterans Journey Home Series
This five film series tells a different kind of “Hero’s Journey” than the one the public is used to. This journey requires a different kind of bravery, not facing bullets and IEDs, but facing tears of anguish and loss, facing acceptance of extreme fear, facing rage at betrayal, facing paralyzing self-doubt and shame, facing judgments of self-hatred – requiring a willingness to face trauma in all its forms, regardless of source, and to use it as a vehicle for growth.
