Brent Renaud was the first American journalist killed in Ukraine. A fearless reporter who filmed on the front lines of countless wars, Brent’s true focus was always the people caught in the crossfire.

His younger brother and frequent collaborator, Craig Renaud, recovered Brent’s body and final recordings from Ukraine, bringing them back to their home in Arkansas. Brent’s journey home offers an intimate glimpse into the passion and purpose that drove his work, revealing how he saw the world through his camera lens. This film honors Brent’s legacy and the many journalists who, like him, use their cameras to fight for peace.
