This is the harrowing and deeply moving story of Eugene "Gene Boy" Benedict.
Raised by his Great Uncle and Aunt on the Odanak Indian Reserve an hour and a half east of Montreal, Quebec, Canada, he leaves home at 15 and enlists in the US Marines at 17. His two years of service in Vietnam and his long journey back to Odanak afterwards take us through a critical point in the world's history as celebrated filmmaker Alanis Obomsawin turns her camera on the ugliness of war through the eyes of one survivor. Her new documentary will resonate with all those who have been touched by war, and with anyone who has had to travel the painful path of healing that eventually leads home.
Canada, 2007, 25mins, doc, English, Alanis Obomsawin, dir.
