About
You’ll likely want this if you seek courageous frontline documentation and hard-hitting accountability; Not for you if graphic depictions of casualties and intense devastation are too much, or if you prefer lighter war documentaries like For Sama or City of Ghosts.
Pros: gripping firsthand reporting; powerful urgency; essential truth-telling | Cons: extremely graphic suffering; very heavy emotional impact; difficult viewing experience
