Ken Burns - The War

For thirty years, Ken Burns has portrayed the essential human emotions and American experience of historical events. With THE WAR he has crowned his three decades of achievement with a jewel of unsurpassed detail and intimate drama.

By focusing on stories from four quintessential American towns - Luverne, Minnesota; Sacramento, California; Waterbury, Connecticut; and Mobile, Alabama - Burns and co-director Lynn Novick personalize the markings and arrows on battlefield maps. Over forty citizens - veterans, factory workers, internment camp detainees, everyday people - recount their experiences of WWII, and contribute to a stunning "emotional archaeology," as Burns puts it, of the global cataclysm.
