Aired on May 21, 2013

The GI Film Festival is the first and only film festival in the nation dedicated to honoring the American Armed Forces through cinema. This event marks the 2011 GIFF kickoff in Washington, DC, where we had the pleasure of meeting Christopher Loverro, a first-time festival filmmaker. His inspiring short film, “Journey Home,” was one of the 31 exceptional films selected to showcase during GIFF.

The GI Film Festival provides a unique platform to celebrate the stories, sacrifices, and experiences of the American military. From powerful documentaries to captivating narratives, the festival brings to light the diverse and compelling tales of those who have served. The 2011 kickoff event was a remarkable gathering, filled with filmmakers, veterans, and supporters who share a deep respect for the armed forces.

Christopher Loverro’s “Journey Home” stood out as a heartfelt depiction of a soldier’s return from war. His film resonated with audiences and highlighted the personal and emotional journeys of our servicemen and women. The festival not only showcases these important stories but also fosters a community of appreciation and support for the military.

Join us in celebrating the artistry and bravery of filmmakers like Christopher Loverro, who contribute to preserving the legacy of the American Armed Forces through film. Experience the GI Film Festival’s dedication to honoring those who serve and protecting their stories for future generations.
