Sergeant Brian Wood
NEW
returned from Iraq a decorated war hero, but the most important battle of his life only began once he got home. After he had left the Army and started a family, the former soldier was accused by noted human rights lawyer Phil Shiner (the excellent Toby Jones) of war crimes as he instigated one of Britain’s biggest-ever public inquiries. Now Sgt Wood’s moving tale is told here in this featurelength film inspired by real events, with leading man Anthony Boyle showing great range as the drama switches between a bullet-strewn battlefield and the cold, clinical courtroom.
