Filmmaker/journalist Brian Palmer embedded with U.S. Marines in Iraq three times. In Full Disclosure, he captures the terror as well as the tedium of the U.S. occupation, moments when U.S. troops, young men trained to fight who speak no Arabic, move among Iraqi civilians hunting for elusive enemies. The results are often benign and sometimes tragic.

Screening followed by a Q&A session with the filmmaker and a reception.
