Restrepo is a feature-length documentary that chronicles the deployment of a platoon of U.S. soldiers stationed in Afghanistan’s Korengal Valley and named after a platoon medic who was killed in action. Korengal was considered one of the most dangerous postings in the U.S. military. Restrepo is an entirely experiential film. The cameras never leave the valley; there are no interviews with generals or diplomats. The only goal is to make the audience feel as if they have just been through a 90-minute deployment. This is war, full stop: The conclusions are up to you. The film screens on Friday, September 17 at 10 p.m., Saturday, September 18 at 1 p.m., 3 p.m., and 5 p.m., and Sunday, September 19 at 2 p.m., 4 p.m., and 6 p.m. Admission is $6 for seniors, University of Miami alumni, faculty, non UM-students and staff. General admission is $8, cash only. Free for UM students. For more information, visit www.cosfordcinema.com or call 305-284-4861.
