Re-Living The Vietnam War

incountryfilm.com

War reenactments are a big deal in our country.  Especially for Civil War battles, remote in time and yet still endlessly fascinating. 

It's a whole different thing to reenact battles from a war that went badly for our country, and that many people remember from their own lives. 

But Vietnam war reenactors do gather for simulated battles in Oregon, a process detailed in the documentary film"In Country." 

The film runs in Ashland starting this week, and director Meghan O'Hara joins to talk about her subject and treatment.
