The Hornet's Nest

Armed only with their cameras, Peabody and Emmy winning war correspondent, Mike Boettcher, and his son, Carlos, spend over a year covering the most violent era of the Afghanistan war. With cameras rolling, they are side by side with American forces in some of the conflict's toughest battles. Their story is compared to "Lone Survivor" meets "Blackhawk Down" except 100% REAL, as Mike and Carlos discover that the family bond they seek is right in front of them - displayed daily in the actions of the Soldiers and Marines who sacrifice everything to save the lives of their brothers. These stories captured as they happen on Afghanistan's battlefields, The Hornet's Nest is the definitive film of America's longest war.
