For nearly a decade, the GI Film Festival San Diego showcases films either for, by and about military and veteran experiences. This year, festival organizers have selected 21 films that will screen across five days. Festival-goers won’t see action-packed Hollywood blockbusters, but stories that highlight personal accomplishments, the transition home from war, post-traumatic stress, military homelessness, resilience, and healing invisible wounds that occur after service. Amber Cournoyer, advisory committee member for the GI Film Festival, discusses why this film festival is so unique and important to the military community.
