The Longest War, a companion piece to the final season of Homeland, unpacks the human stories and drama behind America's involvement in Afghanistan, now the longest war in U.S. history.

 

The Longest War

Showtime documentary feature

Press

“Discussing war lends itself to a focus on dates, figures and concepts, but the elusive human element ties Barker’s film together.”

The Guardian

“Stark, clear-eyed accounting of folly and chaos.”

Los Angeles Times

The Longest War is expectedly gripping. It functions particularly well as an indictment of our great nation's inability to extinguish the fires it starts and its penchant for masking incompetence with hubris.”
