Tribal

If you were not there this will show you the true cost of war. Freedom is not free. What an amazing and high quality film. America loves its veterans and this documentary will only strengthen that love and bond. This film makes clear the burden we have as a nation to do all for those warriors that come home and struggle.

Our warriors cannot walk off the plane onto American soil and just turn off the switch. Some of them need more support from all of us and our state and national systems. This film shows all of us the pain and hurt some of our warfighters carry when they return.

Congratulations to Mark Kershaw and the heroes that told their stories. A must watch for every American!

Tribal details the story of three combat veterans and their experiences during and after their military service. Their portrayal of danger, loss, and sacrifice hooked me immediately. The stories are well-told and the editing and cinematography is excellent, but it's the second half of the film that delivers the gut punch.

These men talk about what is forbidden. Culturally forbidden. Forbidden by the media. Forbidden by their own tribe. Each day veterans struggle with mental health, and their suicide rate is far above the general public. This documentary and these men courageously shine a light on a problem that nobody wants to touch with a ten-foot-pole.

It's the most honest documentary I've ever viewed.

This was one of the most unbelievable and eye-opening documentaries I have ever seen in my life. It takes you through the aspects of war that most people don't see or even understand, which is the aftermath of war, what our soldiers go through when they come home and the struggles that they face when they return back to normal life. Some people can't relate, because they may not have friends or family members that served in the military. This documentary will show you the reality and the truth of what it is actually like. In 2007 I lost a close family friend to suicide after he returned back from his tour in Iraq. He was discharged after his vehicle was hit by an IED and was badly injured. He was never the same after and struggled with coping back to reality. This documentary really hit home for me and my brother. I highly recommend this documentary to anyone and everyone.

Thank you, Mark Kershaw!! What a powerful way to bring more awareness to what Combat Warriors face daily with PTSD. Combat veterans normally hide away their war time experiences. It's not easy to share these experiences with civilians, even including our closest relatives, due to the lack of personal ability to relate without the experience. Sustaining daily fears from the insanity of battles have created permanent scars that will last us a lifetime. The torn-up emotions of warriors, the lifelong imprint left upon us not just by the cataclysm of war but by the relationship with our fellow warriors - the loyalty and love, the complex code of liberation and guilt at having survived our combat tours. Knowing this, we must create a safe community for our combat veterans! If you're a Combat Veteran, I ask that you share this documentary with your community and provide your honest feedback in a review. I personally appreciate all of your support in advance!

I was deeply moved by the three stories told by these brave men who sacrificed so much for our country. Each story is remarkable in its own way. The courage, bravery, horror, and pain is hard to imagine. I thank the producer, Mark Kershaw, for his part in making this film. We need more awareness of these PTSD issues with our veterans. As discussed in the film, our military is really good at training our soldiers how to kill, but not so good at integrating them back into a non-wartime society. The demons they bring home with them don't sleep, don't rest, don't stop. They wait until the soldier is alone, isolated, depressed. It's not a fair fight. We need to help these warriors. Spread the word!
