Battle For Haditha Review

93 minutes, UK (2007), 15



Documentarian Nick Broomfield's third fictional feature is a forensic cinema verit�©-style account of a real-life massacre in Iraq, when US marines gunned down 24 Iraqi civilians in cold blood

One of a current crop of films taking on the issues surrounding the US-led occupation of Iraq, Nick Broomfield's largely successful re-enactment of a massacre of Iraqi civilians by US soldiers explores the events from multiple perspectives. Shot in the naturalistic style seen in his Ghosts, and Paul Greengrass's Bloody Sunday and United 93, the film brings the audience close to life on the ground in this troubled country.
