Description

An intimate film about documentary filmmaker Brent Renaud, the first American journalist killed in Ukraine. Brent captured many wars on the front lines, but he cared most about the people caught in the middle. On March 13, 2022, Brent was gunned down by Russian soldiers. His younger brother Craig Renaud recovered Brent’s body and his final recordings from Ukraine, and brought them home to Arkansas.
