Men of War

The team behind that most iconic Florida film ever, Cocaine Cowboys, returns with a real-life thriller in Men of War, a portrait of American mercenary Jordan Goudreau, an ex-Green Beret who attempted to take down the government of Venezuela. “It’s a morally complicated portrait of a mercenary who thinks he’s a righteous soldier: a man who obviously cannot grapple with the consequences of his actions,” wrote Variety. Filmmakers Billy Corben and Jen Gatien go deep into a conspiratorial shadow world while exposing the profound damage caused by America’s “forever war.”
