Through the vivid and intimate reflections of WWII veterans, Why We Dream explores the ability of reminiscence and the quiet persistence of trauma and hope. Blending uncommon wartime footage, 16mm house motion pictures, cinematic portraiture, and traditional movie excerpts, director Meredith Danluck creates an emotionally pushed examination of battle’s lasting imprint accompanied by an immersive rating from Christian Lundberg and Academy Award® winner Hans Zimmer.
