Winner – Grand Jury Prize, Sundance Film Festival

Why We Fight, the new film by Eugene Jarecki which won the Grand Jury Prize at
the 2005 Sundance Film Festival, is an unflinching look at the anatomy of the
American war machine, weaving unforgettable personal stories with commentary by
a “who’s who” of military and beltway insiders. Featuring John McCain, Gore
Vidal, William Kristol, Chalmers Johnson, Richard Perle and others, ‘Why We
Fight’ launches a bipartisan inquiry into the workings of the military
industrial complex and the rise of the American Empire.

EUGENE JARECKI — DIRECTOR, PRODUCER

Eugene Jarecki's first short film, SEASON OF THE LIFTERBEES, premiered at
SUNDANCE in 1992 before winning a regional Student Academy Award and Grand Prize
at ASPEN SHORTSFEST.

In 2001, Jarecki wrote and directed the dramatic feature THE OPPONENT. His 2002
documentary THE TRIALS OF HENRY KISSINGER was released theatrically in 130 U.S.
cities. Winner of the 2002 Amnesty International Award, the film was nominated
for an Independent Spirit Award, broadcast in over thirty countries. In 2002,
TRIALS was selected to launch the SUNDANCE CHANNEL’s DOCday venture as well
BBC’s prestigious digital channel BBC4.
