Synopsis

For nearly its entire 250-year history, the United States has been engaged in war. From the Revolutionary War to present-day conflicts, its military has profoundly shaped American identity and influenced political decisions. This documentary explores this complex history, analyzing both the Cold and Hot Wars that defined the USA’s development and offering insights for the future. It examines how generations of Americans have lived through these wars and how their lives have been impacted. It also investigates how military actions have shaped America's global image and role. Furthermore, it asks whether current military choices will determine the future and what consequences this has for democracy and society. As a new US president begins his term, the film also considers the role of the military in his worldview.
