Adapted from interviews with U.S. veterans of the War in Iraq, SHOCK & AWE weaves individual lives to form a violent, surreal, and darkly comic tapestry. One man endures the long-distance fracturing of his family while another mounts an intense pursuit of Saddam Hussein's limousine. An Iraqi mother searches for 'someone in charge' while a soldier tries to convince the Army that he bears a mysterious wound. Taken individually, these stories are too strange to be anything but true. Taken together, they form an ensemble piece that's gripping, funny, abominable, and insane - in other words, it's war. SHOCK & AWE presents one of the most controversial conflicts in American history as only the people who've been there have known it. (8M, 1W)
