Brothers at War is a 2009 documentary film directed by Jake Rademacher and produced by Rademacher and Norman S. Powell. The film follows several US soldiers in the Iraq War. The film's executive producers are actor, director, and Presidential Citizens Medal recipient Gary Sinise and Secretary of Defense Medal for Outstanding Public Service recipient David Scantling. Brothers at War won the Best Documentary Feature Award at the 2008 GI Film Festival. The film features an original score by Lee Holdridge and an original song--"Brothers in Arms"—by John Ondrasik of Five for Fighting.

Synopsis

Jake Rademacher states at the beginning of the film that he is setting out to understand the experience, sacrifice, and motivation of his two brothers serving in Iraq. As the film develops, however, it becomes clear that Jake's underlying motivation is to prove himself to his brothers, as well as to himself. Jake, who longed to join the military as a youth but was denied entry into West Point (which is never fully explained in the movie), clearly feels the need for acceptance from his serving brothers.

Dans une première partie Red Army traite du recrutement et de la formation des joueurs professionnels de hockey sur glace durant l'ère soviétique. Puis il suit l'histoire de l'équipe nationale dans les années 1980 à travers le parcours des cinq joueurs vedettes de l'époque avec une emphase sur la carrière de Viatcheslav Fetissov le joueur le plus célèbre de cette formation. Tous ces joueurs faisaient partie du club Armée Rouge de Moscou rattaché à l'Armée soviétique. Les thèmes traités dans le documentaire portent sur le poids de la propagande soviétique, le caractère dictatorial des entraineurs mais également sur la finesse du jeu des joueurs soviétiques.

Le Guêpier est un film révolutionnaire en immersion qui raconte l'histoire, à partir d'images réelles sans précédent, d'un groupe d'élite de soldats américains envovés dans une mission dangereuse au plus profond d'une des vallées les plus hostiles d'Afghanistan. Ce qui devait être au départ une opération d'une journée s'est transformé en neuf jours intenses de combat éprouvant contre un ennemi invisible et hostile sur un terrain difficile où aucune troupe étrangère n'avait osé pénétrer auparavant.
