Synopsis:
"In My Living Room" is a 40-minute cinematic documentary. A Federal Administrative Court Judge, Pat Toal from Chicago, Illinois, U.S.A. who was a soldier in 1968 in the Vietnam War, tells a few moving stories about himself and his adventures in Vietnam as a gunnery soldier in my living room. The stories are unscripted, unrehearsed, and filmed only once so audience sees exactly what the director saw for the very first time. The stories are punctuated with artwork carefully selected from Vietnam War veteran artists whose works tell the same story of pain, courage, instinct and insight. His stories are set amid a backdrop of original film never seen before, of the demonstrations in Chicago’s Grant Park (1968 Democratic Convention). The sound is unusual, filled with hope and sorrow, leaving a haunting backdrop of home and Vietnam, of waterfalls and war!
