Silent Screams deftly interweaves exclusive footage of tribal villagers in Iran with families in neighboring Afghanistan and Pakistan. Explicit scenes detail civilian suffering in war-torn Afghanistan and Pakistan as a result of bombardments by drones, ‘unmanned aerial vehicles’ controlled remotely by pilots thousands of miles away inside the U.S. Spotlighting the destructive costs of U.S. wars, this documentary adroitly binds the plight of civilian victims abroad with the countless Americans whose vital needs go unmet as a result of spiraling military spending. Silent Screams echoes the desperation around the globe for victims without a voice.
