Meeting Resistance
Description
Meeting Resistance is a daring, eye-opening film that raises the veil of anonymity surrounding the Iraqi insurgency by meeting face to face with individuals who are passionately engaged in the struggle against coalition forces. It documents for the first time the sentiments experienced and actions taken by a nation's citizens when their homeland is occupied. With unique insight into the people involved in the resistance, this acclaimed film explodes myth after myth about the war in Iraq and the Iraqis who participate. Voices that have been unheard - previously, both male and female, speak candidly about their motivations, hopes, and goals, revealing a kaleidoscope of human perspectives. Through its unprecedented access, this documentary is the missing puzzle piece in understanding the Iraq war, not only the toll of the occupation, but also the mindset of those who resist.
