The Mills of the Gods: Viet Nam

An award winning CBC documentary on the war in South Vietnam shot entirely on location. The participants speak for themselves. The filmmakers spend time with units from many services: army, marines, ARVN, air cavalry. They accompany an air force napalm and strafing attack. There are many scenes of Saigon streets and of peasant village life. Soldiers speak of their experiences and their mission to fight Communism in Vietnam. There are scenes of dead Viet Cong, and one showing a VC suspect being waterboarded.
