Year at Danger
Nine days after getting married, Steve Metze found out he was being deployed as part of Operation Iraqi Freedom. Metze, a West Point graduate, Desert Storm veteran, and documentary filmmaker, decided to pack a camera and document his year in Iraq.
Metze gets closer to his subjects than even the most embedded reporter. The film is an objective look at deployed National Guard soldiers. There are no politics on the front line, only personalities. Metze captures all of them in a film that combines humor with the, often grim, realities of a war-torn country and the brave soldiers who live there.
Financed by military hazard pay, Year at Danger is a soldier’s story, told by the soldier. No bias, no headlines, just the day-to-day reality of life in Iraq.
