"Veteran Kids" accepted to Harvard Law School Bicentennial Film Festival

9/14/2017

 
Our short film Veteran Kids will be featured at the HLS Bicentennial Film Festival (http://200.hls.harvard.edu/events/hls-in-the-arts) to be held at Harvard Law School on September 16, 2017. Producer Susan Hackley will show the film and talk about its purpose and the process of filmmaking. This will be the fifth film festival featuring Veteran Kids.

​The film shows an intimate conversation, as civilian children ask questions about what it is like to have a parent go to war and military children share their feelings and experiences. You will hear their sincere and poignant exchange, which models the productive and open conversations that are possible when we connect across the military-civilian divide -- the girl who speaks with pride about her dad’s service while describing her fears for his safety; the boy who talks about the tidy and unoccupied bedroom of his mother, a reminder of her deployment. These stories are candid and unscripted. They give us a chance to consider what the experience of war is for the two million children whose parents have gone to our post-9/11 wars.
