To make the documentary, four young Veterans are filmed as they return from Afghanistan and transition into civilian life. The documentary offers the American public a never-before-seen view into lives of soldiers and Marines. These service members have survived combat and returned home, only to find a different set of struggles facing them in their hometowns. Viewers will be able to witness the weight that this most recent generation of combat Veterans carry as they battle PTSD, anxiety, relationship problems, and preparing themselves for their next phases of life. The documentary defines the roles that family, friendships and community play in helping these soldiers transition into civilian life.
Since 2001, approximately two million Americans have deployed in support of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. The Veterans from these wars have become the latest “political football,” with the general public putting pressure on politicians and government agencies to address the issues face by these young Millennials. Although the American people see and read about what these young warriors have been through, and what lies ahead for them, nothing beats a first-hand account, and who better to show you than the Veterans themselves.
“MTV’s Got Your 6” uses adrenaline pumping GoPro footage that was shot by the service members on the ground in Afghanistan. The documentary allows viewers to experience the front lines, and then the journey back home. The documentary also includes candid interviews and footage from these Veterans, including their daily routines once they return home and try to carry on with the burden of their experience.
