In 2006, Lt. Ehren Watada risks a successful career as a military officer when he refuses his orders to deploy to Iraq. Watada takes his defiance a step further when he becomes the first commissioned military officer to speak publicly on his refusal for deployment and to challenge the Presidential war policy in Iraq. Though Watada must face court martial, the possibility of up to eight years in prison, and the wrath of the public, he continues to defend his belief that the war in Iraq is in fact illegal and a violation of his oath. This riveting and suspenseful documentary follows the lonely, courageous, and ultimately redemptive journey of one man who tries in the midst of daunting opposition to do the right thing.
