Over There
The Battle Begins
Created by Steven Bochco, Chris Gerolmo
On FX
A gritty, emotionally intense war drama that splits focus between combat trauma and home-front devastation, grounding its violence in the psychological and relational costs of deployment.
Gritty, intense, evocative and emotional, "Over There" takes you to the front lines of battle and explores the effects of war on a U.S. Army unit sent to Iraq on their first tour of duty, as well as the equally powerful effects felt at home by their families and loved ones.
