Within this recent resurgence in documentary production, the hard reality of war is one of the most popular subjects among filmmakers. These pivotal moments in history that might have been explored as recently as a decade ago are now being re-investigated thanks to analog material that has resurfaced, been digitized -- and made available to today's filmmakers. Where would you find legendary images like Joe Rosenthal's Iwo Jima flag-raising, or Robert Capa's D-Day storming of Omaha Beach? What does the (US) National Archives and the Imperial War Museum have in their archives? Archive Producer Adele Sparks (Five Came Back) moderates an amazing panel of diggers who have scoured to find those chestnuts that can be rediscovered, repurposed, and finally....appreciated.
