Coming home isn’t what they thought it would be. One soldier sees the eyes of the man he shot every time he tries to sleep; another feels he belongs nowhere; another takes out his rage on his wife. They can’t formulate plans, don’t want to fake being happy, and can’t be who they used to be. They aren’t just angry about Iraq, they’re angry about everything—and they all feel guilty for surviving. For five years, director Laurent Bécue-Renard patiently trained his camera on several men seeking support at the Pathway Home, a transition center for combat veterans in California. We witness their pain and hear their fears as they try to rebuild their lives, and what emerges is an eminently poignant and immensely important film that presents an unflinching look at the walking casualties of war. Pathway’s director, Fred Gusman, does everything in his power to try to prevent further losses for the veterans, their wives, and their children, but will it be enough?  WFM
