No...Beyond The Call is a life affirming documentary about three middle aged men (some of which are Viet Nam veterans)who decide to help out victims of war torn countries. We see them assisting aid to those who have been handed the s**t end of the stick for far too long (and always manage to be just outside the range of government assistance programs). From being just a few steps beyond the Taliban in war torn Afghanastan in 2001 to assisting victims of Burmese soldiers in northern Thailand, this film will leave a lump in your throat over their continuing service to humanity (with little or no self glory for themselves, outside of the look on the faces of those they've helped). I'm guessing distribution will be somewhat limited,due to the fact that it's shot on video tape,rather than standard 35mm film stock, but will probably be a staple in film & video festivals.
