> DESCRIPTION

Produced and directed by Phil Donahue and Ellen Spiro, Body of War presents an intimate and honest portrayal of Tomas Young, a paralyzed 25-year-old war veteran, who took a bullet to his spine during his first week in Iraq. The film follows Tomas as he comes to terms with his paralysis and shows his relentless determination to publicly speak out against the war and its consequences. Body of War has been the subject of numerous awards, including Best Documentary of 2007, National Board of Review, and the People’s Choice Award, Toronto International Film Festival.
