We traveled the world, we touched history, we lived history, and we never met a stranger. For Military Brats everywhere, young and old, this is a must-have. Listen to others describe exactly how you felt growing up on military bases around the world and finally feel like you're not alone. Sit down and watch it with your parents or your brother(s) or sister(s). It's a great gift for any and every military brat out there! Read the description below for a glimpse of what this film has to offer. When it's over, you just may find yourself looking for the sequel.

Legendary singer/songwriter/actor Kris Kristofferson, the son of an Air Force general, leads us on a heartfelt journey into the strange but interesting life of an American military "brat". Based on poignant and provocative interviews with adult brats of all ethnicities, including General H. Norman Schwartzkopf and author Mary Edwards Wetsch, BRATS: Our Journey Home is the first non-fiction film to explore this peculiar subculture from the child's point-of-view. What it's like to:

* Move twelve times before you graduate from high school...
* feel like an outsider in your own country...
* got to an integrated school twenty years before the civil rights movement...
* grow up in a paradox that is idealistic and authoritarian, privileged and perilous, supportive and stifling - all at the same time...

And how it affects you as an adult when you leave that environment and struggle to "fit in".

Featuring songs by Kris Kristofferson and never-before-seen archival footage from post-war Germany and Japan, BRATS: Our Journey Home is a gripping documentary from start to finish "with universal dimensions" (Betty Nicholas, Retired DoD Teacher) that "should be seen by everyone concerned about children" (Marlene Koenig, Retired DoD Principal).
