ABOUT THE FILM: The 76 minute feature documentary “Women At War: Forgotten Veterans of Desert Storm” takes an intimate look at women soldiers’ wartime experiences on the toxic battlefields of 1991’s Operation Desert Storm and their heartbreaking battles with Gulf War illnesses since they’ve returned home.
Carol Williams and three other female veterans fight the Veterans Administration for proper treatment and benefits in their search for answers to their mysterious Gulf War illnesses. Experiences of homelessness, suicidal despair and loss of their female reproductive functions due to the war haunt them. These women experience the outrage of betrayal when they discover the VA isn’t there for female Gulf War veterans when they come home. Over twenty years later, their war isn’t over. www.womenatwarmovie.com
