Korengal

KORENGAL is director Sebastian Junger's follow-up to his documentary RESTREPO, chronicling the lives of US Soldiers in Afghanistan. KORENGAL picks up where RESTREPO left off: the same valley, same men, but a very different look at the experience of war. KORENGAL not only shows what war looks like, but how war works and what it means to the young men who fight it. While one soldier cheers when he kills the enemy, another asks if God will ever forgive him for the killing he has done. As one soldier grieves the loss of a friend, another explains why he misses the war now that his deployment has ended, and admits he would go back to the front line in a heartbeat. (HBO Europe)
