A Marine Story
Every fight is personal
Directed by Ned Farr
A character-driven drama about a closeted Marine officer navigating institutional constraint and personal authenticity while mentoring a troubled teenager.
Marine officer Alexandra is tough enough to kick any guy's ass in a bar fight, but there's one opponent she can't beat: military policy. When she returns to her conservative hometown from Iraq with a mysterious personal life, she finds herself charged with preparing a tempestuous teenage girl to boot camp.
