Info

In the space between war and a new battle, NOT YET BEGUN TO FIGHT unfolds, offering an intimate look at the human cost of combat. A retired Marine Colonel reaches out to five men, a new generation returning from the battlefield. He brings them to the river. He puts a fly rod into their hand, teaches them to cast, and shares his secret: there are places where you can still be consumed by a simple act, find joy in a fight, and be redeemed as you gently release another creature, unharmed, into quiet waters.

Not Yet Begun to Fight Audience Reviews

Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.
Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Logan By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.
kay-181-495228 As a tribute to the men and women who serve their country and suffer bodily and brain trauma to show for it, this film is one that covers a topic we mostly try to avoid. The once strong, now crumpled fighters become very human and accessible through the interviewing and listening of the film makers.Shot in a scenic spot in Montana, the cinematography is stunning. The beauty only makes the poignancy of the soldiers' stories more heartfelt.This film was personally selected by Roger Ebert shortly before his death for a place in his annual film festival in Champaign, IL.See it if you can!
jodiecutter Although I am a housewife in an urban town far removed from either war or fly fishing, I was blown away by this film when I saw it at the Florida Film Festival. It is so well edited, it leaves you wanting more. The movie unfolds in a gentle way - none of the interviews or comments are coaxed, and it is completely neutral on a political scale. The cinematography of Montana is breathtaking, and each of the men's stories is so powerful in its own way, you will leave the theater with a new appreciation for all fellow humans who risk their lives for our freedom. After seeing this film, you will be a changed person, and you will count your blessings in a new way.
melindapce Not Yet Begun to Fight is a poignant portrayal of the challenges facing five veterans from our modern war. Their injuries are deep, either to their emotional states or, to their physiology. This movie captures their bravery, fortitude and tenacity to overcome their wounds and make new lives for themselves. The scenery is beautifully captured in the serene atmosphere of a Montana river, where catharsis takes place for them. Any viewer who has the capacity to empathize with our brave veterans will be touched by the story portrayed in this film. You might find yourself picking a favorite veteran, because you resonate with the injuries or experiences in war which brought him to these waters. This film is reflective, relevant and engaging for viewers, and, provides hope for all of us who share in the fate of our beloved veterans.
rodi_montana As a life-long military brat and wife of a former military officer, I am so thrilled to finally see a film that shows the humanity, vulnerability, strength, and beauty of the military member. Regardless of your politics or beliefs about war, this film will inspire you to consider human nature in a new way. As a mental health therapist, I so appreciate the real-life glimpses into PTSD, TBI, and the ripple effect of both physical and emotional trauma. Not to mention the exquisite setting... The breathtaking and peaceful beauty of the rivers and mountains of Montana are the perfect backdrop for this presentation of struggle, human connection, and the possibility and hope of healing.
