Summary |
The long road home relives a heroic fight for survival during the Iraq War, when the US 1st Cavalry Division from Fort Hood, Texas, was ferociously ambushed in Sadr City, Baghdad. This compelling and immersive scripted miniseries gives viewers a moving and unforgettable portrait of what it's really like to go to war, as experienced by the soldiers on the ground - many facing combat for the first time - their families waiting anxiously at home, fearing the worst, and ordinary Iraqis trapped in the chaos of war. |
