Talkback

Submit your thoughts on A FAMILY AT WAR.

We invite you to respond to the questions below or add your comments. Selected submissions will be posted on our Talkback page, so check back regularly and join the discussion. Talkback posts reflect the opinions of the visitors to this site. Only points of view directly related to the film will be considered for posting.
  • Fallen soldier Jeff Kaylor’s father feels that death in war is the price some must pay for accepting the life of a soldier, while his mother feels her son died in vain. Do you agree with one or the other or both?

  • How do you feel about groups using the death of soldiers to either protest the war or rally support for it? Are they exploiting the soldiers for political motives, or are they being respectful?

  • A FAMILY AT WAR filmmaker Jørgen Flindt Pedersen said, “The challenge was to make the family’s private sorrow public, without the audience feeling they were peeping through a keyhole.” Do you feel that he succeeded?
