CliqueClack has partnered with Freestyle Releasing to give readers in the Washington D.C. area an opportunity to attend a special screening of the new documentary The Hornet’s Nest.
The Hornet’s Nest follows Mike and Carlos Boettcher’s struggle to reconnect. After years of separation, they become the only father and son journalist team to embed with American Troops on the front lines in Afghanistan. These heart pounding missions soon become a fight for survival for Father, Son, the Soldiers, and Marines in the mountains and deserts of Afghanistan.
Armed only with their cameras, Peabody and Emmy winning war correspondent Mike Boettcher, and his son Carlos, spend over a year covering the most violent era of the Afghanistan war. With cameras rolling, they are side by side with American forces in some of the conflict’s toughest battles. Their story is Lone Survivor meets Blackhawk Down except 100% REAL, as Mike and Carlos discover that the family bond they seek is right in front of them — displayed daily in the actions of the Soldiers and Marines who sacrifice everything to save the lives of their brothers. A true story captured as it happened on Afghanistan’s battlefields, The Hornet’s Nest is the definitive film of America’s longest war.
The screening will take place on Wednesday, May 21, 7:00 PM at Navy Memorial Heritage Theatre, 701 Pennsylvania Ave NW, Washington DC. Mike Boettcher and Carlos Boettcher, co-directors David Salzberg and Christian Tureaud and Executive Producers Mickey Stern and John Brenkus, owners of Base Productions, are scheduled to attend.
