The Tillman Story

Director Amir Bar-Lev tells the story of Pat Tillman, a professional football player who joined the army to fight in Iraq and Afghanistan, only to be killed by friendly fire which led the Bush administration to cover-up the circumstances and use his death as propaganda to the agony and nightmare of his family. Bar-Lev along with the Tillman family and other witnesses set the records straight surrounding the death while paying tribute to a hero who's remarkable life was cut short by a tragedy. An utterly compelling and heartbreaking film about the causalities of war and the disturbing consequences that's timely and relevant. YRCinema's coverage of upcoming releases.
