Finding Our Voices is about standing up for what you believe.  Not just another Iraq war film, this is a movie about patriotic Americans living their conscience.  At a time when our country looks for a change in leadership, this film celebrates our first amendment rights and our responsibility to participate in our Democracy.  Through the lens of the last 5 years, this movie explores the passion and determination of 8 men and women who sacrifice their jobs, give up their retirement and risk imprisonment in their patriotic dissent of the war in Iraq. Narrated by Martin Sheen.
 
 
No dissent, no debate. No debate, no democracy.
