In his directorial debut, Charles Ferguson explores the reasons behind the chaos of the war in Iraq, from inadequate numbers of Coalition soldiers to the breaking up of Iraq's own military. This documentary features interviews with U.S. soldiers, Iraqis, and experts on the issue, including former Deputy Secretary of State Richard Armitage. Though it's only Ferguson's first film, NO END IN SIGHT earned raves from the most important critics in America for its unflinching, unbiased look at the controversial conflict. The film is both sobering and illuminating. Campbell Scott narrates.
