2008 Feature Documentary Winner: Brothers at War
Jake Rademacher with a desire to learn the truth, journeys to Mosul, Iraq and embeds with (his brother) Captain Isaac Rademacher’s Long Range Surveillance Company. While documenting their covert mission on the Syrian Border, he learns first hand about the grueling nature of soldiering, and the familiar bonds that develop between them.
Jake returns only to have his experiences rejected by his youngest brother, Corporal Joseph Rademacher, a combat veteran and 82nd Airborne sniper. Jake returns to Iraq, and as the action intensifies, so does his understanding of his brothers’ war.
‘Brothers at War’ gives both an up close and personal view of our soldiers, and a deeply personal view of a family divided, but ultimately, profoundly bonded by the crucible of war.
