This documentary chronicles the deployment of a platoon of U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan's Korengal Valley. The movie focuses on a remote 15-man outpost, Restrepo, named after a platoon medic who was killed in action. It was considered one of the most dangerous postings in the U.S. military. This is an entirely experiential film: the cameras never leave the valley; there are no interviews with generals or diplomats.
MPAA rating: R; for language throughout including some descriptions of violence.
DVD, NTSC, widescreen presentation ; Dolby digital 5.1 surround.
English dialogue with optional English subtitles.
2010 Sundance Film Festival Grand Jury Prize.
