Gi Film Festival Trailer: Head in the Sand
www.gifilmfestival.com
Henry is a seven-year old with a sweet tooth for combat-themed comic books, where he is always the hero, and no one dies. The film takes us from Henrys vivid childhood imagination to Henry as a young soldier on a C-130 full of American soldiers flying to the combat zones of northeastern Afghanistan. An encounter with a fellow soldier on the plane reading war comics propels Henry back to the days of childhood and the memories of his days locked deep in his own reveries of the glory and heroism of war. Henrys childhood preconceptions are immediately shattered on the battlefield.
