The documentary, directed and edited by Harris and a team of video producers and researchers from the New York City-based Peoples Video Network (PVN), is a follow up to the 1997 PVN video, Metal of Dishonor, which told the story of soldiers who fought in the Persian Gulf War in the 1990s and how they suffered from exposure to DU.
For Harris, a practicing psychologist, there was a simple reason for doing her recent documentary.
"This information is still being covered up by the military and is not getting out to the mainstream," said Harris. "We need to inform the public further of the dangers of depleted uranium since it is being used more frequently and the soldiers in Iraq are serving much longer."
