Monterey Museum of Art presents In Country

Screening of In Country, a documentary about Vietnam War re-enactments directed by Meghan O’Hara and co-directed by Mike Attie To many of us, the idea of Civil War re-enactment is a familiar concept. But the men of Delta 2/5(R) recreate the battles of a far more charged conflict: The Vietnam War. For one weekend a year, the woods of Oregon transform as a mix of combat enthusiasts, Iraq veterans, and even a former South Vietnamese Army officer, revive — by choice — a war that a whole generation would much rather forget.
