FOLLOWED BY A CONVERSATION WITH DIRECTOR CRAIG RENAUD AND PRODUCER JUAN ARRENDONDO
An intimate portrait of documentary filmmaker Brent Renaud, the first American journalist killed while covering the war in Ukraine. On March 13, 2022, filmmaker Brent Renaud was killed by Russian soldiers – the first American journalist to die while reporting on the war in Ukraine. His younger brother and collaborator, Craig Renaud, recovered Brent’s body and his final recordings from Ukraine and brought them back to their childhood home in Arkansas. As Brent’s journey to his final resting place unfolds, the film chronicles the years he and his brother spent covering some of the world’s most dangerous conflicts.

ROVINA’S CHOICE
FOLLOWED BY A CONVERSATION WITH DIRECTORS TOM JENNINGS AND ANNIE WONG
