Gunner Palace
Directed by Michael Tucker, Petra Epperlein
Produced by Nomados Film
An intimate documentary portrait of American soldiers coping with the psychological and physical toll of combat in Iraq, balancing moments of camaraderie with the weight of ongoing danger.
American soldiers of the 2/3 Field Artillery, a group known as the "Gunners," tell of their experiences in Baghdad during the Iraq War. Holed up in a bombed out pleasure palace built by Sadaam Hussein, the soldiers endured hostile situations some four months after President George W. Bush declared the end of major combat operations in the country.
