GI Film Festival: Operation Emotional Freedom: The Answer
A look at the current state of health care for combat veterans diagnosed with PTSD. The film sets about examining the medical/chemical approach to treating emotional conditions and why drugs are not "the answer." Instead, the story follows a group of volunteer vets and their families on a journey from the hell of their post-war experiences through a newer vision of health and recovery for PTSD and trauma.
