The Peace Patriots

An intimate portrait of American dissenters, who oppose the U.S. invasion and military occupation of Iraq, reflecting on their personal participation as engaged citizens in a time of war. Filmmaker Robbie Leppzer chronicles the story of individuals living in one area of New England, including middle and high school students, college students, teachers, clergy, community activists, and war veterans, as they take part in vigils, marches, theater performances, and civil disobedience sit-ins to protest the war.

Directed by Robbie Leppzer
