Calendar – Past Event

In order to reach the widest possible audience for this amazing and moving documentary How to Fold a Flag, a film by Michael Tucker and Petra Epperlein, Academy Award® nominated filmmaker Morgan Spurlock will release the film nationally under his brand Morgan Spurlock Presents through Virgil Films on May 23 on a first time ever "all-digital" platform. How to Fold a Flag is the third film in the Iraq War trilogy by Tucker and Epperlein. The first film was the gripping Gunner Palace (2004), where cameras followed US soldiers in Iraq and for the first time, we were able to see the war first hand from the perspective of the soldiers. The second film is The Prisoner: Or How I Planned to Tony Blair (2006) where we saw the effects of the war on Iraq citizens through an Iraqi journalist mistakenly accused of trying to assassinate Tony Blair and sent to Abu Ghraib Prison, where he discovers the true meaning of liberation.  And now the third film, How to Fold a Flag.  Five years after filming Gunner Palace, Tucker and Epperlein follow the same soldiers from that film home to America, as each struggles to define their wartime experience in a country largely indifferent to their service.
