Fundraising

Our primary distribution goal is to use the film as a catalyst for discussion and education for those most effected by the trauma of war. We want to deliver impact through our visual storytelling to address many of the dynamics facing our veterans, their families, and the communities they live in as a result of the trauma of war. Our secondary goal is to reach sympathetic audiences to facilitate a better understanding of how combat in war can have a generational effect on the veterans along with many other frequently unrecognized impacts. Our third goal is to promote treatment opportunities veterans and their families can utilize to address their trauma and PTSD.

DIRECTOR'S GOAL

I Wanted To Be A Man With A Gun, Three American Soldiers in WWII addresses the unspoken pain our veterans carry with them upon returning from combat. Their experiences have left many of them unable to fully function or be emotionally present. The negative impact on families and society continues to be profound. It’s my hope that this documentary will:

​

  • Promote careful thought

  • Careful thought offers re-consideration

  • Re-consideration inspires seeing differently

  • Seeing differently gives rise to empathy

  • Empathy encourages change

  • Change fosters forgiveness

  • Forgiveness is the path to renewal
