Last November, I received a request from my friend Christopher Cowen, who is VP of original programming for Herzog & Company, asking me to consider taking-part in a Kickstarter for his latest documentary film project. He wrote:
“The film is called MIND ZONE: THERAPISTS BEHIND THE FRONT LINES and it’s the story of the U.S. Army Combat Stress Control Units that are going behind enemy lines and trying to help soldiers deal with life in a forward position, and the horrors of war which they attempt to cope with on a daily basis. Some supporters believe these therapists might help ebb the effects of PTSD, and some critics believe we are weakening soldiers’ fortitude and putting them even more in harm’s way.”
As you can see if you look here, the film was able to meet its fundraising objectives through Kickstarter. Congratulations to Christopher, producer, director and clinical psychologist Jan Haaken, and everyone involved, and “break a leg” in moving forward on this important project.
Mind Zone is now available on demand: here.
