THIS IS NOT A WAR STORY tracks a ragtag group of combat veterans in New York whose anti-war art, poetry & papermaking keep them together.

In honor of Veterans Day, TCFA is screening this award winning film. The hybrid narrative film features a supporting cast of Iraq and Vietnam veterans, as well as their original artwork, poetry, and music – and was produced over three years as an ongoing collaboration with a thriving community of veteran artists and papermakers.

Meet the filmmaker and veterans involved in the film. TCFA will host a panel discussion after the film screening to talk to the audience and answer questions about their experiences and continuing projects.

“Comin’ home from a war you don’t feel morally justified being a part of… is not easy to live with. You wake up one day and realize…instead of being one of the Jedi, we were the Storm Troopers.” – ELI WRIGHT (US Army Veteran | Iraq War)
