It was with disbelief and great sadness that I heard photographer Tim Hetherington had been killed in Libya. His photography and film work is both beautiful and heart-wrenching, but most importantly it provided a raw and unflinchingly honest insight into many social and political issues worldwide.

Restrepo...
Directed by Sebastian Junger (A Perfect Storm) and Tim Hetherington, Restrepo is an entirely sobering and numbing documentary that follows an American platoon based in the Korangal Valley of Afghanistan. An experimental film in that the cameras never leave the valley, and there's no interviews with generals or diplomats, Restrepo leaves you wondering how on earth anyone can go through this, and return to 'normal' life.
