National Bird (2016) follows the dramatic journey of three whistleblowers who are determined to break the silence around one of the most controversial current affairs issues of our time: the secret U.S. drone war. At the center of the film are three U.S. military veterans. Plagued by guilt over participating in the killing of faceless people in foreign countries, they decide to speak out publicly, despite the possible consequences.
Director and Producer Sonia Kennebeck will join UCSB doctoral student in Film & Media Studies Daniel Grinberg for a post-screening Q&A.
