Marines of Echo Company 2nd Battalion, 8th Marine Regiment, Nathan Harris, Ashley Harris.

Follows U.S. Marines Sergeant Nathan Harris from combat behind enemy lines in southern Afghanistan to his return home to a difficult adjustment to civilian life after being wounded.

"Embedded in Echo Company during the assault, photojournalist and filmmaker Danfung Dennis captures the frontline action with visceral immediacy. When Sergeant Harris returns home to North Carolina after a life-threatening injury in battle, the film evolves from stunning war reportage to the story of one man's personal apocalypse. With the love and support of his wife, Ashley, Harris struggles to overcome the difficulties of transitioning back to civilian life. The two realities seamlessly intertwine to communicate both the extraordinary drama of war and, for a generation of soldiers, the no-less-difficult experience of returning home. An unprecedented exploration of the moving image and a film of uncommon intimacy, Hell and Back Again comes full circle as it lays bare the true cost of war."--Back of container.
