Written and directed by Iraq War veteran Ray Mendoza and Alex Garland (Civil War, 28 Days Later), Warfare embeds audiences with a platoon of American Navy SEALs in the home of an Iraqi family, overwatching the movement of US forces through insurgent territory. It's a visceral, boots-on-the-ground story of modern warfare, told like never before: in real time and based on the memory of the people who lived it. Memory can be distorted and confused, timelines can be changed and key points forgotten, especially when dealing with war trauma and PTSD. 20 years later the lessons pieced together from these brave young people should be a warning for our turbulent times and a call to act now to avoid any further warfare.
Experience this real time event on the largest and loudest screen in the UK.
