Avec Darfour : du sable et des larmes, le cinéaste Paul Freedman, lauréat du Peabody Award, nous plonge dans la réalité de la situation au Darfour. Il s'est joint à un contingent des forces pour la paix de l'Union Africaine au Darfour, où l'une des pages les plus tragiques et perturbantes de l'histoire de l'humanité est en train de s'écrire. Alors que les hommes et les femmes de cette mission affrontent des conditions très dures et une violence sans limites, deux millions et demi de personnes déplacées n'ont pas d'autre choix que de trouver refuge dans des camps sordides. A ce jour, on estime que 400 000 civils ont perdu la vie.

À 8h15 précises ce 6 août 1945, le monde a changé. 40.000 personnes trouvent instantanément la mort, mais ce sont bien 200.000 décès qui seront provoqués par l´explosion de la première bombe nucléaire sur Hiroshima, au Japon. Ce documentaire exceptionnel de 90 minutes n´est pas « Un énième film anti-guerre » déclare son réalisateur Paul Wilmshurst, « mais bien l´analyse neutre et objective d´une décision cruciale. Il ne s´agit pas d´être pro-américain ou pro-japonais, j´ai simplement voulu raconter la vérité. » Une vérité technologique, scientifique, militaire et politique qui se dessine dans les trois semaines précédant l´attaque, alors que le premier essai nucléaire vient de se dérouler dans le désert du Nouveau-Mexique, aux États-Unis. Le spectateur se retrouve alors dans la pièce où est prise la décision ultime, à bord de l´Enola Gay pendant son trajet fatidique, à l´intérieur de la bombe au moment de l´explosion, puis dans les rues dévastées d´Hiroshima.

The Invisible War features interviews with veterans from multiple branches of the United States Armed Forces who recount the events surrounding their assaults. Their stories show many common themes, such as the lack of recourse to an impartial justice system, reprisals against survivors instead of against perpetrators, the absence of adequate emotional and physical care for survivors, the unhindered advancement of perpetrators' careers, and the forced expulsion of survivors from service.
