AMERICAN STANDARD

a film by David Henry Gerson

Â“Dynamite!Â” Â– Abel Ferrara

"American Standard...is truly excellent...a taut, disturbing, meaningful portrait of a military man in trouble...explains a man's unfathomable actions in a way that makes me understand him." - John Patrick Shanley

Sgt. John Richards, a troubled young American soldier returns home from military service in Afghanistan to his undocumented immigrant girlfriend. After killing for his country, and suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder, he is tormented by the idea that his lover might be using him as a means to gain citizenship. The clash of their traumatic pasts leads to an explosive and tragic collision between these two alienated young Americans.

Based in part on the stories of the filmÂ’s star, Sgt. Marco Reininger, a veteran of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The film also features Sgt. ReiningerÂ’s personal iPhone footage of the war in Afghanistan, where he is now again serving.

American Standard is the first film photographed by Pulitzer Prize winner Edward Keating.

Executive Produced by The Human Rights Action Center and Gerry Lane.
