Immediately after the attacks on September 11, 2001, the United States government initiated a secret war against Afghanistan, deploying fewer than one hundred Special Forces troops to fight back. Building a coalition with the rebels of the Northern Alliance, the US troops faced off against the Taliban and the terrorist organization al-Qaeda. They succeeded in driving both out of power by the end of 2001 with minimal casualties and without conventional, large-scale military operations. Despite this victory, the U.S. and its allies soon became mired in a seemingly never-ending war. This untold story features unprecedented access to the Green Berets who played pivotal roles in these covert missions. Reflecting on their experiences and on the brothers-in-arms they lost, these elite soldiers offer a riveting celebration of valor and a sobering, cautionary tale. LEGION OF BROTHERS is produced by CNN films and directed by Greg Barker (“Manhunt”).

History made by US Army SOFOutstanding yet heartbreaking story of US Army Green Berets during the post 9/11 invasion of Afghanistan. Story follows the 5th Special Forces Group, (less than 100 Green Berets on the ground), along with massive US air power, and local tribal leaders, as they rest control of Afghanistan from the Taliban. History making story of a true Green Beret Mission. JFK would be proud. My heart goes out to the Davis family and others who lost their loved ones in defense of our nation. It's brave soldiers like LTC Jason Amerine and his team of Green Berets that keep our citizens safe. Thank-you, 5th Group..Score: 5/5

Sergio summary, synopsis, reviews
SergioDocumentary2009

He was the United Nations' 'go to guy,' a charismatic figure described as a cross between James Bond and Bobby Kennedy. But Sergio Vieira de Mello was more than an irresistible image. He was a humanitarian of the highest order, and his long career as a U.N. diplomat earned him tremendous praise for his hands-on work inside nations in crisis—including war torn Iraq where he was targeted by Al Qaeda terrorists. This documentary tells the inspiring story of this complex Brazilian who made a habit of descending into the world's most dangerous places. With visceral immediacy, haunting footage and harrowing testimony, filmmaker Greg Barker recreates the events of the ominous day in 2003 when Sergio was marked for death.

Vandevere (Michael Keaton), who recruits the peculiar pachyderm for his newest, larger-than-life entertainment venture, Dreamland.

Using the story of the Red Star Line as a narrative vessel, this three-part documentary by Daniël Cattier and Fabio Wuytack explains why European emigrants left their homes behind for an uncertain future. It details their trips to Antwerp, their travel across the ocean, and their adjustments to their new lives in America. Theirs are intimate yet epic journeys in which past and present merge in the forging of new identities. The film, which is shot on location in Antwerp, New York, Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary, Russia and Ukraine, uses ‘emotional archaeology’ to weave a richer narrative than could be conveyed through a string of facts and figures. And walking in the footsteps of Red Star Line passengers, surprising similarities are revealed to the experiences of modern immigrants.
