Democracy for America: The War Tapes: Through a Soldier's Eyes

Just got this from Democracy for America (the wonderful organization that Howard Dean started as an outgrowth of his 2004 presidential campaign that sparked net-based grassroots at its finest), who wants volunteers to host a home showing of this film to friends, family, and neighbors:

The enormous human and financial cost of the war in Iraq continues to build each day. And so does the movement to stop it. This month we will keep the pressure on both the President and Congress to not only stop the escalation, but end the occupation and bring our brave men and women home.

You can play an important role by hosting a screening of the provocative and hard hitting documentary The War Tapes during the week of February 18 to 24. Can you host a screening?

Straight from the front lines in Iraq, The War Tapes is the first war movie filmed by soldiers themselves. The War Tapes is the complete story of three very different soldiers. It focuses not just on the war, but life back home and the difficult ways family and relationships change. You have never seen film like this before. The film is powerful and moving conveying both the passion and mindset of American soldiers and the incredible human and community cost of war. You will leave this movie more motivated than ever to end the occupation and bring our troops home.
