Operation Dreamland

Operation Dreamland depicts life in Iraq in the good old days of January 2004. The war is not yet a year old. The film could not even be made now. Iraq is not that safe any more. The soldiers are bored and cynical. Even the most optimistic of them do not believe that there is much they can do positive in Iraq. Their only job is protecting themselves. These guys, some just out of high school, proved to be more prescient than their leaders. The locals are idle men harassed day and night by US forces. Or scared women and children. The film is even more powerful two years later. What will we say in 2008?
