Details

For over 20 years, war photographer James Nachtwey has not missed a single war. This award-winning film follows Nachtwey for two years to hot spots including Kosovo, the West Bank, and Indonesia, as he searches for a picture he thinks he can publish. A film about a committed, shy man, who is considered one of the bravest and most important war photographers of our time—but hardly fits the cliché of the hard-boiled war veteran.
"Every minute I was there, I wanted to flee. I did not want to see this. Would I cut and run, or would I deal with the responsibility of being there with a camera." —James Nachtwey
DVD bonus features include subtitles in five languages, interviews with Nachtwey and Frei, "Locations," "Protagonists," and "Scene Selections."
