Description
Documentary innovator de Antonio’s look at the Vietnam war shows us what was happening at the height of the conflict (1968/69) through news footage and interviews. The filmmaker makes a compelling argument that “America is intervening in a civil war on behalf of a corrupt, authoritarian South Vietnamese government and carrying on a war founded on racism” (Danny Peary, Guide for the Film Fanatic).
