See the films the platforms disagree about most →A veteran war correspondent, haunted by the conflicts she has witnessed, takes a young, idealistic journalist under her wing in a active war zone. She teaches the rookie the rules of survival: objectivity, detachment, and emotional distance. But when they are embedded with a unit caught in an ambush, the older reporter's hardened principles are tested. The experience forces both women to confront the human cost of the stories they tell and the price of bearing witness.
