American War by Omar El Akkad
5.0

Remarkable. Blend true-to-life reportage of contemporary warfare and a cultural dissection of the U.S., then wrap those two up in a powerful family story and shoot the timeline out to 50 years from now. Voila. A gripping yarn that with much to say about the crossroads the U.S. sits at, today.
